I think you're wrong. The disksim receives a physical sector address and
a request size. With these information he computes a duration for this
request.
What you mean is to translate a logical address to a physical address. A
filesystem has to cover this action.
A filesystems task is to map a logical address belonging to a file into
a physical sektor address.

Best regards
