I've been experiencing this same issue since upgrading my motherboard recently. I have the Asrock H87M Pro4 with the latest (Dec 2013) firmware, along with an Intel X25-M 160GB 50nm with the latest firmware. I had to add the kernel parameter rootdelay=90 for my system to start up, because the >60s delay was causing it to fail to busybox.
I just learned today that if I pass the parameter libata.force=1.5G to the kernel, it allows my system to boot with no delay. Now, I'm limited to ~125MB/s on my SSD (as tested by hdparm -t) so that sucks, but at least my system is working right.
