Extremely slow POST from cold boot

I've been experiencing extrememly slow POST times from a cold boot with my maximus VII formula (up to 30 seconds). I suspect it is due to the amount of devices I've got plugged in. I've currently got 6 HDD's and 2 SSD's connected, and pretty much all of the USB ports full (12 ports).

 

The strange part is that in the BIOS I've only enabled power to the Keyboard/Mouse and Boot SSD during POST. So I'm not too sure why this would be happening. If anyone has any ideas I'm open to suggestions! Thanks.

Remove all but keyboard and boot device, is the boot still slow?
