SQL Alwayson availabity group latency
According to PSS that wait type is the time it takes for the primary to receive a notification that the log block has been written on the destination (though not replayed), and after this the wait type changes to WRITELOG and the log block gets written locally.

Logically then any disk waits to write the block remotely must be included in that HADR_SYNC_COMMIT time.

Perhaps if you run PAL on your secondary you will see that it has lower disk latency and so can complete the writes faster. It would be interesting for you to look and see.

Incidentally the MSSQL Tiger Team have a video and demo XE script and Power BI sample that gathers AG sync information and displays it in graphs; if you're interested in exploring that you could give it a try.
