Hey Guys,
So I bought an Octane III back in November 2016 with a SAMSUNG PM961 drive inside. I asked for the OS to be installed on the machine so when I received it, the boot times were really fast and was very pleased. I've had to reinstall the OS a couple of times after that, (Windows 10), and what I've noticed is that the boot time is now quite long. It's not incredibly long, let's say it's 20-25 seconds instead of 9-10 like it was before. That 10-15 second difference is actually spent in a black screen before the StyleNote logo shows up. With the original OS installation from PCS, as soon as I pressed the power button, the StyleNote logo would appear. Now, after I press the power button, the screen stays black for 15 seconds before it shows the StyleNote logo.
I have a 256GB SAMSUNG PM961 M.2, PCIe NVMe for my OS and a 500GB Samsung 750 2.5" SSD for general storage. When I go into the BIOS to select the first boot, only the 500GB SSD shows up and I can't see the PM961.
Do you guys have any clue why this is happening? Could it be related to some drivers I am missing for the PM961 or some configuration I forgot?
Thanks!
