Q: If my computer only supports PCIe Gen3, can it still work with a PCIe Gen4 SSD?
A: PCs that do not support PCIe Gen4 SSDs can still use the said SSDs. However, the SSDs performance will be limited to PCIe Gen3 levels.
Q: Do I need to install a driver to use my SSD?
A: ADATA SSDs can use standard drivers, which can be applied to different operating systems; at the same time, users can also install the drivers officially provided by the motherboard manufacturers.

Pros: The S70 was installed as an OS drive on my machine Ryzen 5600x paired with a massive CPU air cooler on ASRock B550 mobo without removing any of the components. Just removed the ASRock m.2 armor shield and dropped this drive in and screw in a tiniest screw which btw came with my board. There is zero clearance issue with the S70 heatsink so called 'massive' like some reviewers claim. XPG S70 2TB is the fastest Gen 4 ssd. Take a look at my CrystalDiskMark benchmark and then check the other Gen 4 ssd reviews and see it for yourself.
Cons: A little pricey, if not in a hurry wait for sale. It seems the heatsink is somewhat hard to remove but I don't plan on removing it. It fits great with B550 SL mobo.
Overall Review: This Gen 4 ssd didn't disappoint. Get the 2TB SSD for maximum R/W and longevity. The firmware it came with is 3.2.F.P7 and it does NOT need to be updated. You can try the lastest field update tool to check. It won't brick the drive. ADATA got a lot of flack for swapping the controller earlier this year, but fear not the XPG S70 controller they are using an InnoGrit IG5236 controller and Micron 96L is safe.
