<storage> The time it takes for a disk drive to move its
head(s) from one track to another. The seektime depends on
the power of the servo, 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.

Shortest seek first
Shortest seek first (or shortest seek time first) is a secondary storage scheduling algorithm to determine the motion of the disk read-and-write head in servicing read and write requests.
