Simple Sequential Access
Figure 12. Simple Sequential Access Performance
|
The above table gives the time required to read for a total of 8000x consecutive blocks (16,777,216 bytes)
|
accessed by 128 read commands.
Typical and Max values are given by 105% and 110% of T respectively
throughout following performance description.
Note:
Assumes a host system responds instantaneously and host data transfer is faster than sustained data
rate.
|
T = A + B + C + 16,777,216/D + 512/E + DRQ
where:
T = Calculated Time (sec)
A = Command Process Time
(Command overhead) (sec)
B = Average Seek Time (sec)
C = Average Latency (sec)
D = Sustained Disk Buffer Transfer Rate (byte/sec)
E = Buffer Host Transfer Rate (byte/sec)
DRQ = Data ReQuest interval (sec)
3.3.5.2
Random Access
|
The above table gives the time required to execute a total of 1000x read commands which access a random
LBA.
|
T = (A + B + C + 512/D + 512/E + DRQ) * 4096
where:
T = Calculated Time (sec)
A = Command Process Time
(Command overhead) (sec)
B = Average Seek Time (sec)
C = Latency (sec)
D = Average Sustained Disk Buffer Transfer Rate (byte/sec)
E = Buffer Host Transfer Rate (byte/sec)
DRQ = Data ReQuest interval (sec)
