access time - (1) Memory access time is how long it takes for a character in memory to be transferred to or from the CPU. In a personal computer, fast RAM chips have an access time of 70 nanoseconds or less. SDRAM chips have a burst mode that obtains the second and subsequent characters in 10 ns or less.
(2) Disk access time is an average of the time between initiating a request and obtaining the first data character. It includes command processing, seek time and latency. Fast hard disks have access times of 10 milliseconds (ms) or less. This is a common speed measurement, but disk performance is influenced by channel speed (transfer rate), interleaving and caching. See cache, seek time and latency.
