Slow boot on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS

I have a new PC with Windows 10 on the first SSD and I have installed Ubuntu 16.04 LTS on the second SSD.
On turning the PC on it takes ~30s before the PC beeps and then another 15s before we hit grub. After that it's quick. I have run dmesg and systemd-analyze blame and the reports there show the kernel is quick (~10s) so I think it's something pre-Ubuntu that is causing the issue. I have disabled fast boot in the UEFI BIOS.
The total boot time is ~1min and whilst I am happy to wait this long in general I am just keen to check it's not indicative of anything wrong with the install (i.e. I don't want to proceed then have to reinstall everything in a few months).
I appreciate this won't be enough to go on so appreciate any indication as to the best information to provide to diagnose.
Thanks,
Mark

You can use "systemd-analyze plot > file.svg" to generate graphic of the boot process; maybe check your UEFI/BIOS if it performs some sort of memory checking maybe 64GB ram takes this long.

Okay so this shows 30s in the firmware stage before we get to the Ubuntu kernel (which is fast after this). Any ideas from here? Thanks

Enabling CSM seems to halve the firmware bit but we're still ~20s to get to the Ubuntu loader.
