Hello,
I've been facing this issue for a while now. Every time I turn on the PC, it takes between 5 to 10 minutes before the desktop appears.
My Samsung M2 SSD works fine with a regular SSD, but this one has been acting up since at least six months ago.
The C drive is completely free of issues except for Windows.
The M2 was just bought about a year ago and I've had this problem for at least half a year now.
What could be causing this? I can format it if needed, but I don’t want to. Is this a defect or something else?
Here’s the spec profile if you need it:

Check if the OS is installed on the SSD, try disconnecting other drives, and see the latest BIOS updates. Test in safe mode as well.

Recently I tried a test by unplugging the other SSD and HDD, but nothing changed. The OS is running on the M.2 drive. I don’t know the BIOS settings and haven’t checked in Safe Mode.

Reports indicate fake Samsung SSD products are being sold on Amazon. Use Samsung Magician to check your M.2 drive. It may require a firmware upgrade.

I can't grasp how to use it, but it indicates "there is a reported issue." You also ran a benchmark test.

Run a clean boot using msconfig (System Configuration) and check if any changes affect the initial boot time. If you see differences, it suggests an installed program is starting during boot and could be causing delays.

does the spinning circle process take too long before you log in? if yes, clean up your system restore points using the windows cleanup tool.

very low usage, only OS is installed on the M.2 drive. RAM usage is 15% when Chrome is open. I only have Windows antivirus installed, no issues there if that's what you're referring to.
