Are the SSDs firmware updated as well?

ye, SSD have actual Firmware, Sandforce 1000/2000 Controllers are very much known to behave well on raid controllers.

Btw, Pirat just found the solution.
I HAVE A SCSI CONTROLLER!
I Mean i run ATA Drives but its SCSI, at least theoretically capable.
SCSI Controllers need time for the drives to settle, i know that BSD likes to wait 15 seconds.

[*]"rootdelay". Aus initramfs-tools(8):

Code:

rootdelay
              set delay in seconds. Determines how long  mountroot  waits  for
              root to appear.  The default is 180 seconds.
 

Kannst Du auch testweise direkt beim entsprechenden
Eintrag im GRUB-Menü einfügen, z. B.:

Code:

linux /vmlinuz-3.2.0-3-amd64 root=/dev/mapper/vg0-lv--root ro rootdelay=0

(oder erst einmal auf 170 Sekunden, um zu gucken, ob das
überhaupt der Parameter ist, der das verursacht).

--> It was the first of his 2 Ideas about "180 Seconds"
So in fact the SCSI Controller dont say that its ready, maybe cause of no SAS drives connected, who knows.

Solution:
Open /etc/defaut/grub
change the existing line so it looks like this:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="rootdelay=0 noquiet"
then enter "update-grub" in console

when it dont boot back, just press "e" in grub on boot to take that setting out temporarily so u can boot.
