4.5Performance characteristics

Drive performance is characterized by the following parameters:

Command overhead

Mechanical positioning

-Seek time

-Latency

Data transfer speed

Buffering operation (Look ahead/Write cache)

All the above parameters contribute to drive performance. There are other parameters that contribute to the performance of the actual system. This specification defines the characteristics of the drive, not the characteristics of the system throughput which depends on the system and the application.

4.5.1 Command overhead

Command overhead is defined as the time required

from the time H->D Reg FIS w/ command bit is sent by host

to the time

PIO Set Up FIS is sent by device(PIO Read/Write)

DATA FIS is sent by device(DMA Read)

DMA Activate FIS is sent by device(DMA Write)

DMA Set Up FIS is sent by device(NCQ Read/Write)

Seek Start (Read cache not hit or Seek)

The table below gives average command overhead.
