nominally kept full. This impact to insert performance is determined by the following
factors:
• A shorter time delay between eject and insert operations increases the inserts to
non-HD frames (this is because eject operations will empty some number of Tier 0
slots)
• A shorter distance between the I/O stations used for inserts and the HD frames
decreases the insert move time to those frames
For more information about HD frames, see High density technology .
