*Speed varies by capacity, please check specifications below for further details.


Redefining the Speed of Creativity
LEGEND 960 MAX supports the latest PCIe Gen4 x4 interface, which meets the NVMe 1.4 standard. It offers mind-blowing creativity and supports the latest Intel and AMD platforms, turning the device into an invincible powerhouse.


Ultimate Performance for Creators
LEGEND 960 MAX delivers a sequential read and write speed of 7,400/6,800MB per second, which is up to 4 times faster than a standard PCIe Gen3 SSD and 13 times faster than a SATA SSD. It is backward compatible with PCIe 3.0 and made for professionals to challenge the impossible.
*Speed varies by capacity, please check specifications below for further details.


Max Heat Dissipation, Max Stability
LEGEND 960 MAX's cooling system uses aluminum alloy to thoroughly cover the hard drive to maximize heat dissipation. With multi-layered cooling fins, it allows cool air to flow in along the metal case and push away hot air. The distinctive convection cooling design can reduce the temperature of SSD by 40% and bring out stable performances.


A Perfect Partner for PS5
LEGEND 960 MAX's size conforms to the slot design and can be installed in PS5 consoles as expanded storage, taking PS5's performance to the next new level. With LEGEND 960 MAX, you can enjoy AAA Games with no lag and show the world what you've got!
*According to Sony, even if the read and write speed is higher than the official standard, not all games can actually experience the same performance as the PS5 console's built-in SSD.
**Sequential read speed is measured at 6,400MB/s for all capacities when the PS5 console is operating.


Keep Cool and Carry On
Details make the difference. By carefully analyzing the convection design, ADATA presents you with exclusive LEGEND 960 MAX cooling fins, which can significantly reduce the temperature of SSD by 40%. You can enjoy the seamless gaming experience offered by the unique cooling design.
*Thermal information based solely on copying game data from console to this product and from this product to console. Actual results will vary depending on individual testing environments.


4TB Capacity? Challenge accepted
With 3D-stacked flash memory, the LEGEND 960 MAX provides you with capacities of up to 4TB. What's more, it comes with various protection and correction technologies, and high TBW (Total Bytes Written) for durability and reliability.


Eye-catching Performance
LEGEND 960 comes with SLC Caching and DRAM Cache Buffer for advantages in system loading and data caching. It features 4K random read/write of up to 750K/630K IOPS for smoother multitasking.
