Acer Predator GM7000 vs ADATA Legend 800: Comparison
Acer Predator GM7000 vs ADATA Legend 800 sequential read compared
Sequential read is where these two genuinely part company, Acer Predator GM7000 7400 MB/s against ADATA Legend 800 3500 MB/s, a 53% lead for Acer Predator GM7000. The benchmark result agrees. Speed Score puts Acer Predator GM7000 24% ahead, 8.4 against 6.4. Acer Predator GM7000 also leads on sequential write, 6700 MB/s on the Acer Predator GM7000 versus 2800 MB/s on the ADATA Legend 800. There is a split on dram cache as well, DRAM on the Acer Predator GM7000 versus DRAM-less with HMB on the ADATA Legend 800. Add nand layers to that, 176 on the Acer Predator GM7000 versus 128 on the ADATA Legend 800, and the pattern holds. They differ on controller too, IG5236 on the Acer Predator GM7000 versus IG5220 on the ADATA Legend 800. Nand vendor is not the same on both, Micron on the Acer Predator GM7000 versus YMTC on the ADATA Legend 800.
Who each one is for
Take the Acer Predator GM7000 for gaming PCs and laptops with a PCIe 4.0 M.2 slot wanting 2000 GB of fast storage. It is equally the pick for buyers who want a DRAM cache and a 1300 TBW endurance rating. Avoid it for systems limited to PCIe 3.0, where the drive cannot reach its 7400 MB/s read speed.
What Acer Predator GM7000 and ADATA Legend 800 have in common
Everything else lines up. Capacity, bus interface, nand type, form factor and drive type read the same on both, so those are not worth weighing. They match on 1 further specification as well.
