Help - slow boot after hard drive change (& yes, I did select the startup drive!)


so replaced hard drive in 2010 mbp13". toshiba 250gb out , toshiba 320gb in. did full backup using carbon copy cloner.

works fine, boot time longer now: "chime" user login takes 67sec , around 40sec more until loaded. don't know how boot time before, wasn't long.

yes, did select new hd startup drive in system preferences & restarted macbook (3 times already!) , repaired permissions around 3 times too. smart status fine well. indexed.

there's thing:
around 40sec boot (while still on apple logo screen), fans kick in loud , spin down usual 2000rpm desktop loads fully. did not happen before. what's that?

btw, did full xbench before , now. better or same before , overall result better. new hard drive performs better according tests. also, drive performs in machine, no problems whatsoever. slow boot , fan noise during boot process.

not sure more do. suggestions? on snow leopard 10.6.7 (and intend upgrade 10.6.8 fix problem).
