~20 second boot time with NVMe SSD

rayp

Boot sector is on the C drive, so that's perfect. 

I'm afraid there's little we can do to speed it up.  It's probably just the BIOS/UEFI that's taking time to check the hardware ... which includes spinning up the HDD to check its health. 

 

If it makes you feel any better, your PC still boots in less than half the time that mine takes, and mine only has SSDs inside with a 960PRO as boot drive.

Shut down, open the side panel, unplug the HDD, and boot the system. See if that makes it boot faster.

It's open air, it's just a pain to get the drive bay thing out

Just did a test to see the boot order, and I noticed that the screen that lets you enter BIOS doesn't come up until the HDD has fully spun up...

Here is something for you..maybe reconsider you are fine..

Sounds like it's just the system waiting for the HDD to spin up so it can POST. Completely normal, and nothing you can do to stop it short of unplugging the HDD.

20s is still really good boot times. Much better than the 60+ seconds with HDDs.

If you're getting your boot time from the startup tab in the task manager then I don't think that is very accurate because I just looked at mine and it says 0.0 seconds and I know that it isn't that fast, even with my boot drive being SSD.
