In [[main memory]], the '''access time''' is the time period between the start of a read access cycle, and the point in time when the data is returned to the requestor.

In [[Dynamic RAM|DRAM]] memories, if the memory is in the middle of a [[refresh]] cycle when the request arrives, that can delay the memory's response - and thus the access time for that particular cycle.

 For [[secondary storage]], such as [[disk]]s, it refers to the time between when the disk is asked to perform an operation on a given block, and when the operation begins.
