A hard disk drive (HDD) can move to any position on the disk in a few milliseconds, whereas tape drives must physically wind tape between reels to read any data. Consequently, tape drives have very slow average access times. Nevertheless, tape drives can stream data extremely quickly off a tape when the required position has been reached.
