Hard drive speed is measured in revolutions per minute (RPM). The higher the RPM, the faster the hard drive can access and transfer data. Additionally, hard drive speed is also measured in terms of its interface type, such as SATA, eSATA, or USB. The faster the interface, the quicker the data can be accessed and transferred.
