Hello everyone. I seem to be having a bit of a problem with my computer's boot time. I recently upgraded my computer to a 250GB Samsung SSD for the OS and 3 3TB Seagate 6Gbs hard drive in raid 5 with a 120ssd cache drive (64GB cache/48GB Data) using Intel SRT via onboard controller on the MSI Z87 G45 Gaming motherboard. Posting take only 2-3 sec longer to detect the raid array but when it get to the "Starting Windows" screen with the waving logo, it stays there for a good 20-30 sec. Before with just the SSD, my boot time from the "Starting Windows" screen was about 2 seconds.
I am currently initializing the raid 5 array. Could that be the reason why it is so slow? It's only about 83% done after a week as I don't leave my computer on 24/7.
If you have any suggestion about what is causing this please let me know. I will try to post some hard drive speed test as soon as possible. Thank you all ahead of time for taking time to read and help me out with my problem.
