Could both of you attach the details of the disk drive that is slow to respond? There are several potential scenarios I'm exploring:

1. Specific issues with some disk drives. Some drives take a *long* time to clear the status register after a reset.
2. Issues with the particular chipset/controllers (I notice both systems have two 82801* (ICH8/9 Family) IDE controllers
3. Issues with ata_piix driver

The reports:

ls -l /sys/block/sda > /tmp/report.txt
sudo hdparm -I /dev/sda >> /tmp/report.txt

Attach /tmp/report.txt to your reply.
