On my Thinkcentre M55 there is actually a BIOS screen that warns of the SATA
drive possibly taking several seconds to spin up, but on that machine, the
drives are always detected on the first pass (perhaps owing to the delay at
the SATA BIOS screen).
On the T61 there is no special BIOS warning. I have not attempted to debug
the problem beyond simply observing what happens when I try to boot the
machine. IIRC there was no such trouble when running in legacy IDE mode.
