PCMark 7 includes seven PC tests for Windows 7 & 8; 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 & 8 for home, and business use.
We will look to the RAW system storage scoring for RAID 0 evaluations, because it's done without system stops, and therefore allows us to see significant scoring differences between drives/arrays.

Just as we saw with our Vantage testing, there is a huge difference between a single drive, and a two drive array. The 600 series has nearly identical performance to the Extreme II array in this test. The larger capacity 600 series array is able to outperform the smaller capacity 600 series array in this scenario.
