Boot times with SSD 750 are slower than other SSD. Why?

I've observed that the 750 is exhibiting very slow boot

times in my lab when compared to the P3600 or 730.

Boot Time:

730 – 9.2 seconds

P3600 – 8.7 seconds

750 – 18.3 seconds

I measured the boot time from the first appearance of the

Windows logo (or spinning dots) to the appearance of the Win 8.1 Start screen.

I tested each drive individually in an ASUS X99-A

motherboard. The P3600 and 750 were tested in the same PCIe slot.

Each system had a fresh Windows 8.1 install with the latest

NVMe driver (1104). Data Center Tool 2.2.1 shows the firmware andbootloader for the 750 are up-to-date.
