I have had a heck of a time getting my new system built, taken several days this holiday with many frustrations.
Where I am at: I have installed windows 7 to a 3T drive that I then cloned to a Samsung 950 pro SSD m.2 drive. I removed the 3T drive. With just the Samsung 950, the machine will start very quickly, 10 seconds on the windows splash screen and then it jumps right into windows. Shutting down takes like 5 seconds. About the same thing is true if the 3T and the Samsung 950 is installed, start up and shutdown fast.
Where things go wrong: Its when I Install one or two 1T data drives from my old pc that it makes windows sit on the splash screen for anywhere from 3-20 minutes. If one is installed it seems to go a little faster than if two, but still we are talking in the 3-20 min range either way. I do not currently have the 3T drive installed right now, just trying to fix this issue. When windows comes up, it does see the drives, it just takes forever to come up. Shutdown takes about the same amount of time, 3 to 20 minutes.
What I have done on my own: Searched a lot, turned off boot for those drives in BIOS, looked to see if there were any special partitions on those drives under disk mgmt that windows is trying to work with, there were none.
Build:
OS: Windows 7 64bit Pro
MB: MSI Z170A XPower Gaming Titanium Edition
Processor: i5 6600k
Ram: Ballistix Sport LT 16GB Kit (8GBx2) DDR4 2400 MT/s (PC4-19200) DIMM 288-Pin - BLS2K8G4D240FSE (Red)
SSD that contains OS: Samsung 950 pro SSD m.2 drive
Other Drives: Two WD Blue 1TB SATA 6 Gb/s 7200 RPM 64MB Cache 3.5 Inch Desktop Hard Drive
Other Drive: Toshiba P300 3TB Desktop 3.5 Inch SATA 6Gb/s 7200rpm Internal Hard Drive
Thanks for your help in advance, you don't care about the details, but this has been one huge frustration since the Wednesday before Christmas.
