Yea, you read the title correct. I noticed that my SSD takes longer to load up than a WD Blue 7200 HDD.
So basically I brought my whole rig to my friend's house and told him to shut his PC off. I then told him let's turn on our systems at the same time and just sit back in jealousy... I've never been so embarrassed where his almost full Terabyte HDD out-beat my barely half full Samsung EVO 850 250GB SSD by about 1 second. To protect my ego I responded by, "Oh, I think I may have had a BiOS update or a windows update, or maybe my BiOS logo takes longer."
I was actually really stumped because I previously had the SAME HDD as him and my PC would boot up in roughly 2 minutes. I beat him in "restart PC test" but not by a lot; maybe like 5-10 seconds.
Getting to the base of my post now, what could POSSIBLY be wrong?! Why is his almost full Terabyte HDD beating out my 250GB SSD?
Thanks in advanced to anyone who responds.
