Does it affect something in how drivepool works? File placement, directory traversal or lookup, etc? I guess what I would like to know is what's the purpose of having that information for drivepool?

In the changelog here (for the beta versions): https://dl.covecube.com/DrivePoolWindows/beta/download/changes.txt this is mentioned: " 1537 * [D] [Issue #28834] Report no seek penalty for the pool if all of its pool parts are also reporting no seek penalty (see 'dpcmd list-pools'). " What exactly is this "seek penalty" mentioned here?
