1.Execution time measured from receipt of the Command to the Response.

2.Assumes no errors and no sector has been relocated.

3.Typical access times are measured under nominal conditions of temperature, voltage, and horizontal orientation as measured on a representative sample of drives.

4.Access time = controller overhead + average seek time and applies to all data transfer commands. Access to data = access time + latency time.
