PCMark 7 aims to shed a little more insight into real life performance of your computer hardware by semi-synthetic means -- and all insight is good, right? The great thing about standardized tests is anyone can repeat them and get very similar results, given identical hardware. PCMark 7 is a Windows desktop environment based test, which is exactly what we are after. Well, I am not going to narrate the stuff above in detail, because we all know graphs are there for a very good reason. As you can see in our results above, the IronWolf Pro ST14000NE0008 was the fastest mechanical hard drive in the overall score and the first HDD to crack the 3000 point barrier. The IronWolf Pro 14TB was at the top against other hard drives in each simulation segment with the exception of the Video Editing and Adding Music benchmark, which is excellent.
