This reminds me of the old problem of booting too fast to
allow the hard drives to "spin-up" properly.
Any chance you are using the "fast boot" options.

Every so often my system goes past POST and brings up a critical status window during BIOS saying my Stripe Array has failed. One
particular thing is if it doesn't happen and there is a good boot, and I leave the power on, but restart (warm boot) the machine, it
won't happen.
