My primary hard drive recently died, (maxtor diamondmax10 500gb) and I replaced it on monday with a 1tb samsung F3, so after a fresh windows install it now sits and the 'starting windows' screen with the fluctuating windows logo for a good minute or so before prompting me to login to windows.

On the old drive it would go from the starting windows screen to login inside 30-45 seconds, maybe quicker. Have I foolishly missed something? or is this down to the drive being a larger capacity?

Its just bugging me is all, I will be doing a fresh install soon hopefully once I finally get round to buying an SSD.

Also sorry if this is the wrong forum, I couldn't decide between here and the Hard Drives section :D
