As you can see from the chart, the Aspire R 13 performs well in all three components of this test. In fact, the R 13 earned first place in the Home Accelerated and Work Accelerated tests and came in second place in the Storage test.  The relatively fast processor and super speedy SSD help propel the system to head of the pack here.
