That's the amount of time it takes for the hard drive head to find position and stabilize, making it ready to read/write.
what is seek time
Ram seek time is the amount of time the ram takes to find the given piece of memory after receiving the command from the cpu. Average ram seek times are around 4-3 nano seconds.
Seek time:- it is the time required to move the disk arm to th required track.During the "seek time", an actuator moves the disk heads to the disk.The seek time is the time it takes a hardware device or software program to locate a particular piece of information.latency time :-it is the time it takes for the begning of the requirement sector to reader the head. Latency is the elapsed time from the moment when a seek for confirmation that the packet has been received.Latency and bandwidth are the two factors that determine your network connection speed....Latency is a time delay between the moment something is initiated
access time
As per the Hindu religion, one needs to seek the auspicious time for starting one's daily activities. There is a Tamil proverb which says "நாளும் கிழமையும் நலிந்தோர்க்கு இல்லை". It means that one need not seek auspicious time to help others.

access time
Refers to the time a program or device takes to locate a particular piece of data. The time it takes for a disk drive to move its head(s) from one track to another. The seek time depends on the power of the servo motor that moves the head, the mass of the heads, the number of tracks traversed and the time taken to position the heads over the target track accurately enough to start data transfer (which includes several variables). The terms seek time and access time are often used interchangeably. Technically speaking, however, the access time is often longer than the seek time because it includes a brief latency period.
