Great document to keep handy, personally I use the Physical Disk counters often and refer to this document when doing so.

Read the document here.

*Update* Scott Drummonds of vPivot.com posted on ESXPlot, a great tool that is far more efficient and less aggravating than Perfmon for working with ESXTOP output files.  Sorry, I forgot to update this post for so long, I will be sure to create a new post just for this great new tool.
