As simple as possible it is the time it takes a disk to find a piece of requested data.
Seek time is composed of two parts:
- The time to mechanically move the heads from the track they are on to the track the requested data is on, this is usually the longest part of seek time.
- The time for the disk to rotate and bring the data to the head, once the head is on the right track.
Most modern hard disks contain a cache memory, if the requested is still in the cache memory the effective seek time drops to zero as the drive doesn't have to access the disk.
