Designed for both PC and PS5 use, the Adata Legend 840 has some stiff competition. We’ve reviewed the 1TB model, although it’s also available as a 512GB drive.
All drives ship with a heatsink as standard, which the company says keeps the drive 15% cooler. The competition at this price tends to ship with heatsinks, too, so it’s not particularly an Adata advantage.
As is required for a drive that supports the PS5, the Adata Legend 840 has a PCI-E Gen4 interface. Here, the specs are just right for the PS5: a claimed read speed of 5,000MB/sec and a write speed of 4,500MB/sec. Both are good in their own right, but the issue here is price.
Not as widely available as its competitors, the cheapest we could find the Adata Legend 840 was £140 on Amazon. That’s more expensive than rivals, all of which have higher quoted read and write speeds.
Turning to the benchmarks, the Adata Legend 840 didn’t perform as well as the main competition, either. In the PCMark 10 benchmarks, scores of 2,949 in the System Disk test and 3,699 in the Data Disk test are just below mid-table.
