Test Bench
For our tests, we used our Test Rig which consists of an ASRock Z690 Phantom Gaming-ITX/TB4 motherboard, along with an Intel Core i9-12900KF, a ASRock Radeon RX 6500 XT (4GB GDDR6) graphics card, and 32GB Adata Lancer RGB DDR5-6000 memory kit.
* ALL tests are conducted at specified default speeds and settings.

AIDA64 Disk Information
As you can see from AIDA64 disk information, the AAdata Legend 840 uses Innogrit’s Rainier QX IG5220 SSD controller, supporting NVMe 1.4, PCIE 4.0 Gen4x4 and comes with a total capacity of 1TB of 3D NAND flash memory.
CrystalDiskMark
CrystalDiskMark is a disk benchmark software.It measure sequential reads/writes speed,measure random 512KB, 4KB, 4KB (Queue Depth=32) reads/writes speed, select test data (Random, 0Fill, 1Fill), provide theme support and Multi-Language support.
During our CrystalDiskMark tests, we managed to get an excellent read speed of 5,027.85 MB/sec with Writes speeds of 4,878 MB/sec. I love it when products perform better than advertised
ATTO Disk Benchmark
ATTO has created a widely-accepted Disk Benchmark freeware software to help measure storage system performance. As one of the top tools utilized in the industry, Disk Benchmark identifies performance in hard drives, solid state drives, RAID arrays as well as the host connection to attached storage.
Anvil Storage
Anvil’s Storage Utilities is a powerful tool that was designed in order to provide you with a simple means of assessing the read and writer performance of your Solid State Drive or Hard Disk Drive.
During our Anvil tests, we managed to get a 4K QTD16 Read IOPS score of 260,804.45. While 4K QTD16 write IOPS score was at 495,401.04, which is truly amazing.
Load Temps
During our full load tests, temperatures reached a high 51 degree Celsius, which is extremely good. I’ve known other PCIE 4.0 Gen4x4 SSDs reaching higher, so 51 degrees is pretty cool (pardon the pun).
PCMark 10 – Full System Drive Benchmark
The Full System Drive benchmark uses a wide-ranging set of real-world traces from popular applications and common tasks to fully test the performance of the fastest modern drives.
This benchmark writes 204 GB of data to the drive over the duration of the test. This data is deleted when the test ends.
运行这个测试,你需要至少80 GB的free space on the drive, 8 GB of RAM, and a quad-core CPU.
3DMark Storage Benchmark
Fast storage means shorter loading times and more time in the game. The 3DMark Storage Benchmark is a dedicated component test for measuring the gaming performance of your storage hardware. Using traces recorded from real games, it tests performance for activities such as loading games, saving progress, installing game files, and recording gameplay video streams.
Modern storage hardware is so fast that its performance can be limited by the CPU. We recommend using a 3.0 GHz quad-core processor or better when testing ultra-fast storage.
