PCMark05 Results

Longer bars are better
Take a look at the test results that we got out of the X300 and you’ll see that the SSD scores incredibly well in PCMark05. Most laptops get an HDD result of 4000-5000, while the tiny Sony TZ11XN only managed 2107. By contrast, the Lenovo X300 got a score of 15,428, which is twice as high as the four 1TB drives that we recently reviewed.

Longer bars are better
The blistering performance of the Samsung SSD makes up for the rather slow Intel processor and gives the X300 a level of response that is quite unexpected in such a small, quiet laptop.
