Before fitting ADATA XPG SX8200 (512Gb), Win10 was installed on a EVO 256 Gb SSD with RAPID MODE.
Start Up / last bios time was typically 10s. After cloning (using Reflect) onto the SX8200 the startup time is now 16s.
However loading apps is much faster.
Any suggestions as to why windows startup is slower?
(interestingly my OMEN laptop startup with SX8200 is 3.2s)
