ADATA Legend 970 2TB SSD Review

We used CrystalDiskMark 8‘s custom settings to test the Sequential read and write performance of the drive through a range of queue depths. The setup for the tests is listed below.

128KB Sequential Read / Write.

Transfer Request Size: 128KB, Thread(s): 1, Outstanding I/O: 1-32.


With this Sequential test, we could confirm the official Sequential read/write ratings for the drive of up to 10,000MB/s with a read result of 10,024MB/s with writes a little faster at 10,161MB/s.

128KB Sequential Read Performance v QD compared.


At QDs 1 & 2, the ADATA Legend 970 sits in a mid-table position, but as the queue depth deepens it slips down the results chart.

128KB Sequential Write Performance v QD compared.


The ADATA Legend 970 sits between the Seagate FireCuda 540 and Gigabyte's AORUS Gen5 10000 for all the tested queue depth results.
