I dunno... bout 2-3 minutes?

checks SATA, then onboard IDE RAID slots

maybe 2 minutes then...

but not long enough for me to really pay attention..

35 seconds upon hitting "restart" from windows.

On clean install, 20 seconds at most.

This is with winXP on a Raptor non Raid.

3 seconds for me... when i'm coming back from a S3 suspend to ram ;) on a restart ? probally a minute or so

my mac at works takes a lot longer though, longing ot takes around 20-40 seconds, loging in about the same. starting up is about 30seconds-1.5 minutes. but past the minute range usually.
