This counter provides the low-order 32 bits of the total seek operations performed by the physical drive during its reference hours, combined with cpqFcaPhyDrvHSeeks for the full total; a value of 4,294,967,295 indicates it could not be determined. An admin references this alongside read and write counters to characterize whether a drive's I/O pattern is sequential or highly randomized. For example, a very high seek count relative to a modest read/write sector count would suggest heavily randomized access on that disk.
