Your fastest SSD Boot times!

post #1 of 43
Thread Starter 
I was actually wondering how fast you guys boot into your Windows (Either Windows 7, or Windows 8!)

I havent tried windows 8 yet, but im more then happy with my Samsung 830 performance.
It boots in 13 seconds (Post included!) here is a video for proof!



Your turn!
Code:
[B]What SSD are you using?[/b] --
[b]Sata II or III?[/b] --
[b]Which OS?[/b] --
[b]Motherboard Type[/b] --
[b]External Devices --
[b]Boot time?[/b] --
[b](Optional) embed a video[/b] --

UPDATE November 10th. 2012:
I added Motherboard Type and External Devices into the list because that also affects boot speeds.

Not sure what you mean, when I restarted my computer it goes through the process:

Shutting down
Boots (Asrock splash screen)
Windows Loads (disabled boot logo)
Then back to Windows

If you mean the post sound then yeah I have those off. tongue.gif

Windows 8 does wonders for SSD boot times. I've got Word 2010 and Windows Media Center on a Windows 8 Pro install and it is lightning fast.

What SSD are you using? -- Crucial M4 128GB

SATA II or SATA III?  -- SATA III

Which OS? -- Windows 8 Pro (X64) with Windows Media Center (technically different from Windows 8 Pro)

Boot Time?  -- ~12 seconds from power button to start screen, 5.96 seconds from Windows 8 logo; 4.14 seconds to power down
