Why does my notebook start so quickly?

And my pc so slow?

I have certainly installed SSDs in my PCs for 10 years (currently R5 3600X, 32 GB RAM, 250 GB SATA III SSD) and never got under 20 seconds start time. My current notebook (i5 5200U, 8 GB RAM, 250 GB M.2 SSD) doesn't take 5 seconds. Both up to the login screen and almost identical autostart programs.

Shouldn't a PC start up faster than a notebook? How come

M.2 SSDs are usually faster than normal SSDs.

This is probably due to the m.2 ssd and that the laptop has to recognize less peripherals and hardware (dedicated gpu, more hard drives)

M.2 is primarily just another form factor, most are just as fast as regular SSDs.

M.2 NVME SSDs are much faster.

I would say your PC starts with more programs than your laptop

Or. There are more connections in the PC that have to be run through by the start routine than in the laptop

My M.2 is a SATA

Then your laptop SSD will probably be slightly faster than yours in the PC.

A PC is not faster than a notebook when it boots up.

How old are the SSDs?
Is the M.2 SATA or NVME?
Which SSDs are installed exactly?
Are you sure that the same services and programs start?
Has a time been set in the BIOS that pauses booting so that it is easier to get into the BIOS or boot menu?

There was a similar question here when it was said that the BIOS on the PC takes longer. But there it only "hangs" for 5 seconds and then Windows is loaded, which would be 15 seconds.

This will be due to several things, e.g. Has such a desktop CPU and the chipset a lot more I / O that has to be initialized when the system is started, on the other hand, the NVMe SSD in the laptop will also be faster. The main advantage of PCIe SSDs lies in the burst transfer rate and not in reading small blocks (as is usual at system start-up), but you must not forget that SSDs, regardless of the interface, have made progress in the last decade even with small block sizes and above In addition, your SATA SSD has probably already been a few years under its belt and it will be an SSD with MLC or even TLC NAND, in which the controller has more and more problems reading blocks with increasing age and has to spend more time on error correction.

Basically, a laptop does not have to start slower, the process only takes a few seconds and the CPU is usually Still cold, i.e. A laptop uses the highest power states and boost clocks during the start-up process and thus hardly differs from a desktop, especially since the data carrier is usually the limiting factor here anyway.

The SSD in the PC is an Intenso SATA III and about 3 years old (something over 500 MB / s read / write). The SSD in the notebook is an M.2 SATA SSD, which can read over 500 MB / s and believe 200 write. The notebook is so 2 years old.
There's not much more in autostart than on the PC (only the bare essentials). The autostart programs are only loaded after logging in.
What is meant is the time until there.
The BIOS on the PC takes 5 seconds to load Windows

Just checked again, the SSD in the PC is almost exactly 4 years old, this one: https://geizhals.de/...20370.html

Well then it's no wonder. An Intenso SSD that is 4 years old will never be able to achieve full performance. We're talking about Intenso…

At which position is the boot device in the boot folder?
And:

Has a time been set in the BIOS that pauses booting so that it is easier to get into the BIOS or boot menu?

So the SSD was the recommendation of many hardware sites back then.

The SSD is on the 1st port (SATA 0 says believe on the port)

I don't know what time is set. Everything is on default.

If it is on default, it may be that there's a waiting time. Look up. And also check out the boot order.

Thank you. You mean "Post Report"? That was 5 seconds and I set it to 1 second. What else I noticed. The fact that "Other OS" was entered in "Boot Mode" (or something like that), I once set that to "Windows UEFI", now it starts much faster.
Could the Bott Mode have changed something?

I agree. You can also set Post report to 0 if that works.

Boot mode can also have changed something, yes.

What is the order of the boot devices?

The Intenso SSD is entered in the BIOS as "1st boot device" and also in the 1st position of the ports.

That's very good

Then you helped me a lot. ^^

That's what I'm here for

OK
