Submitted by: Administrator

The access time is the time taken by the disk to read data on it and it is directly related to the nature of the platter speeds and the moving heads.
★ Seek time: This time specified the time taken by the head to reach the track where the required / target data is available.
★ Rotational Latency: This latency occurs when the required data by the computer is still not under the head so the assembly will have to move their.
★ The access time of the hdd can be improved by giving more speed in the rotation of the platter.
