Hi All,
First post here. I currently have a Z77 Extreme 4 motherboard with a 240gb Sandisk SSD running Windows 8 and two Seagate 3tb HDD's for storage and a BD ROM.
With everything connected, my boot time is approx 25sec with approx 11sec of this in BIOS post. However with only the SSD connected (ie disconnect 2 x 3tb HDD and BD ROM) the boot time is much quicker with the BIOS post time cut down to 3-4 secs.
Is the above behaviour normal ? or can something be done to reduce the detection of the other SATA drives ?
Cheers,
