    Definietly not. I tried 4 boards of different manufacturers, all of them had the same weird booting stop.

    And I'm definitely not alone on this, just do a "sb750 slow boot" google search, you'll find loads of posts about it. It's more likely you didn't notice the issue because you are used to it.

    I'm using the SB950 and boot in 13 seconds flat in AHCI, unless i'm using the on board raid then it takes around 7 seconds to initialize each drive plus the 10 second controller initialization time which is typical of all software raids.

    Are we talking about the time it takes from pressing the on button to desktop appearing here? I'm not using raid, ssd is the crucial m4. My brother has a similar boot time as you with the same SSD but Intel's Z78 chipset. My booting time is about 24-31 seconds.

    That is interesting. Which board do you have? BIOS or UEFI?

    Depends on the manufacturer, that's why I wanted to know which board (model) you have ^^
