Unlike a magnetic rotating disk, the Zeus
IOPS
 SSD has no moving read/write head or platter. The 
access time ranges from 20
μsec to 120μsec. The actual access time may be affected by the 
operating system and the storage capacity of the drive.

The data transfer rates of the SSD are outlined in Table 2. Access times are measured under nominal 
temperature and voltages from a representative sample of the drive. The access times are measured 
from receipt of last byte of the Command Descriptor Block (CDB) to the request for a Status Byte 
Transfer to the Initiator, excluding Connect/Disconnect.
