About PCMark 7
PCMark 7 includes 7 PC tests for Windows 7, combining more than 25 individual workloads covering storage, computation, image and video manipulation, web browsing and gaming. Specifically designed to cover the full range of PC hardware from netbooks and tablets to notebooks and desktops, PCMark 7 offers complete PC performance testing for Windows 7 for home and business use.
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 classic 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 Western Digital Red Pro WD141KFGX 14TB scored reasonably well at 2685 points overall, but did not come close to the Seagate IronWolf Pro ST14000NE0008 14TB, which remains to be only mechanical hard drive to have ever cracked the 3000 point barrier. The WD141KFGX was also marginally faster than the Red WD140EFFX 14TB's 2648 overall points.
