Question 174Asked in DSSSB TGT Computer Science, 24 Jun 2023, Shift 3 (4:30 PM)
The advantage of SSTF (Shoffest Seek Time First) is:
Ahigh variance of response time as SSTF favours only some requests
Boverhead to calculate seek time in advance
Caverage response time decreases
Dthroughput decreases
Show answerHide answer
Correct answer: (C) average response time decreases
Explanation
SSTF serves the request nearest to the current head position, which cuts total head movement and lowers average response time. A and B are its drawbacks.
