4.5.2.4
Cylinder switch time (cylinder skew)
Cylinder switch time is defined as the amount of time required by the fixed disk to access the next sequential block
after reading the last sector in the current cylinder.
The measuring method is given in Section 4.5.5, “Throughput” on page 28.
4.5.2.5
Single track seek time (without command overhead, including settling)
Single track seek is measured as the average of one (1) single track seek from every track in both directions
(inward and outward).
4.5.2.6
Average latency
4.5.3
Drive ready time
Ready
The condition in which the drive is able to perform a media access command (for exam-
ple- read, write) immediately.
Power on
This includes the time required for the internal self diagnostics.
Note:
Max Power On to ready time is the maximum time period that Device 0 waits for Device 1 to assert PDIAG.
