This Motherboard with a triple boot setup, booting in AHCI mode

Here is the relevant message (pulled from dmesg), note the long delay in timestamp between them:

[ 6.528119] ata2: link is slow to respond, please be patient (ready=-19)
[ 11.028120] ata2: SRST failed (errno=-16)
[ 16.540117] ata2: link is slow to respond, please be patient (ready=-19)
[ 21.040117] ata2: SRST failed (errno=-16)
[ 26.552117] ata2: link is slow to respond, please be patient (ready=-19)
[ 56.072118] ata2: SRST failed (errno=-16)
[ 56.072125] ata2: limiting SATA link speed to 1.5 Gbps
[ 61.104117] ata2: SRST failed (errno=-16)
[ 61.104142] ata2: reset failed, giving up

Seems to work fine on Windows. It's just an Ubuntu issue.

All my drives seem firmly connected, with no jumpers, most are SSD but some are IDE. I have like 6 drives. One is a Hackintosh (Mac GPT drive) and another is Windows. One SSD is connected via eSATA

I don't know if ata2 is the same as /dev/sdb but if it is, this may be interesting:

$ sudo fsck /dev/sdb 
fsck from util-linux 2.31.1
e2fsck 1.44.1 (24-Mar-2018)
ext2fs_open2: Bad magic number in super-block
fsck.ext2: Superblock invalid, trying backup blocks...
fsck.ext2: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/sdb

The superblock could not be read or does not describe a valid ext2/ext3/ext4
filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2/ext3/ext4
filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock
is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock:
 e2fsck -b 8193 <device>
 or
 e2fsck -b 32768 <device>

Found a gpt partition table in /dev/sdb

A commentary on the cause: https://www.redhat.com/archives/rhl-list/2006-October/msg03892.html

Because it's a GPT hackintosh drive:

$ sudo gdisk /dev/sdb -l
GPT fdisk (gdisk) version 1.0.3

Partition table scan:
 MBR: protective
 BSD: not present
 APM: not present
 GPT: present

Found valid GPT with protective MBR; using GPT.
