 ## Disk IO, throughput, queue depth and latency metrics
 The following metrics are available to get insight on VM and disk IO, throughput, and queue depth performance:
 
-- **OS Disk Latency (Preview)**: The average time to complete IOs during the monitoring for the OS disk. Values are in miliseconds.
+- **OS Disk Latency (Preview)**: The average time to complete IOs during the monitoring for the OS disk. Metric is only available for disks attached to VMs using SCSI disk controller and not with disk attached to VMs using the NVMe disk controller. Values are in milliseconds.
 - **OS Disk Queue Depth**: The number of current outstanding IO requests that are waiting to be read from or written to the OS disk.
 - **OS Disk Read Bytes/Sec**: The number of bytes that are read in a second from the OS disk. If Read-only or Read/write [disk caching](premium-storage-performance.md#disk-caching) is enabled, this metric is inclusive of bytes read from the cache.
 - **OS Disk Read Operations/Sec**: The number of input operations that are read in a second from the OS disk. If Read-only or Read/write [disk caching](premium-storage-performance.md#disk-caching) is enabled, this metric is inclusive of IOPs read from the cache.
 - **OS Disk Write Bytes/Sec**: The number of bytes that are written in a second from the OS disk.
 - **OS Disk Write Operations/Sec**: The number of output operations that are written in a second from the OS disk.
