Slow boot on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS

Hello all,

I got a PCS computer yesterday with the following headline spec:

Case CORSAIR CARBIDE SERIES™ 200R COMPACT GAMING CASE
Processor (CPU) Intel® Core™ i7 Eight Core Processor i7-7820X (3.6GHz) 11MB Cache
Motherboard ASUS® WS X299 PRO: ATX, USB 3.1, SATA 6 GB/s
Memory (RAM) 64GB Corsair VENGEANCE DDR4 3000MHz (4 x 16GB)
Graphics Card 11GB NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX 1080 Ti - HDMI, 3x DP GeForce - GTX VR Ready!
1st Hard Disk 240GB KINGSTON UV400 2.5" SSD, SATA 6 Gb (550MB/R, 490MB/W)
2nd Hard Disk 480GB KINGSTON UV400 2.5" SSD, SATA 6 Gb (550MB/R, 500MB/W)

I finished the install on the first hard disk of windows then installed Ubuntu on the 2nd SSD. When I boot the PC it takes almost 30s before I get a beep and we start booting...from that point it's another 30s. I have run dmesg and systemd-analyze blame but they don't seem to show any issue with the Ubuntu kernel taking time (~10s) so I'm a little stumped as to what else it could be? It appears to be pre-Ubuntu that it's taking the time.

I have also disable fast boot in the UEFI BIOS.

I appreciate this won't be enough to go on so please direct me to the best way to provide any further information.

Thanks,

Mark

Do the first 30 seconds start before or after the machine posts?
