Here is our explanation of how drive response time is calculated.
Drive Response Time: Average time spent completing drive I/O requests, in microseconds, for the selected drives used in provisioned storage, including time spent in the queue. Calculated as a weighted average, which gives more weight to the drives with the highest number of I/O requests.
NOTE: The assumptions the system makes when calculating the average drive response time may not hold true for bursty traffic.
Do not think the metric description clarifies issue as it seems to vary depending on the Service Processor providing the metric. From the description above, would expect value to be very similar from both SP. I would suggest if this is still an issue to open a case with support.
