Maybe somehow windows / macOS updates are linked to something in BIOS (Idk either) ?
Idk.
- capableweb 4y agoI haven't used a HDD for the OS drive for many many years now on any of the OSes, so shouldn't matter. It's possible I guess that both Windows and macOS upgrades something regarding the boot process, one of the Windows machine (which today went through the ~25 minute upgrade I described in the OP) is a Surface Pro 8, and all the macOS machines are obviously Apple hardware, so very likely there are firmware upgrades happening as well. It's a good guess.
