Physical Disk Object
The Physical Disk performance object consists of counters that monitor hard or
fixed disk drive on a computer. Disks are used to store file, program, and
paging data and are read to retrieve these items, and written to record changes to
them. The values of physical disk counters are sums of the values of the
logical disks (or partitions) into which they are divided.
Current Disk Queue Length
Current Disk Queue Length is the number of requests outstanding on the disk at
the time the performance data is collected. It includes requests in service at
the time of the snapshot. This is an instantaneous length, not an average over
the time interval. Multi-spindle disk devices can have multiple requests
active at one time, but other concurrent requests are awaiting service. This counter
might reflect a transitory high or low queue length, but if there is a
sustained load on the disk drive, it is likely that this will be consistently high.
Requests are experiencing delays proportional to the length of this queue minus
the number of spindles on the disks. This difference should average less than 2
for good performance.
