No need to test....it's time to enjoy your new HTPC......Nod

If you want to stress it, try watching blu-ray movie while transcoding blu-ray file using HandBrake.......

May be a long shot - go into the Bios and make sure your first boot device is the Hard Drive.


Install CCleaner and run the Registry Cleaner. Then re start your computer.
Before you go to bed, Log Off your computer and don't touch it till you get home from work the following day.
That will give the controller time for Trim and Garbage Collection to work. It may (or may not) shorten the boot time. I do this once a month just to keep things clean.

Have you try to contact AsRock technical support? You can tell them exactly what you reported in here and other thread.....maybe, they might be able to offer some solution......
