unusual manjaro behavior causing random freezes or incredibly slow boot


hey guys,

let me take it from the beginning: i used to have Manjaro Cinnamon installed in my work pc along with windows 7. everything was working flawlessly. i decided to upgrade to windows 10. after the installation was finished i restored grub via live usb. since then manjaro took an incredibly huge amount of time to boot without obvious reason.having tried almost everything with the help of the manjaro forum guys, i couldn't solve the problem, i tried a fresh install. it didnt help, random freezes and long boot times continue to happen. i discovered that this happened during one of the freeze events:
CLICK TO VIEW IMAGE. so it got me thinking tha something wrong was with my ssd. so i checked it using hd tune, ssd life, fsck and gparted. no errors were reported. samsung magician software also reported no errors on the ssd. i changed my sata cables with no luck.memtest show no error on RAM. i tried other linux installations like manjaro from scratch with cinnamon on top and fedora 22 cinnamon and they were working as they should.windows 10 also works as it should. i turned the fast startup option in windows, nothing changed.systemd-analyze blame gave no indications why the boot sequence takes so long(it reported the usual numbers as before the whole thing started). i'm really starting going nuts because i can't figure what is happening. Any help would be appreciated..

my specs:

hp xw6400 workstation:

2x Intel Xeon E5320@1.86 GHz CPU
6GB DDRII RAM
HP Mobo with SATA2 ports
HD no1: Samsung 840 EVO 120GB SSD
HD no2: WD 250GB
GPU: Asus Geforce GT630

Here's a S.M.A.R.T report of my ssd: CLICK TO VIEW IMAGE

what I can imagine is a kernel and/or driver problem. Probably you can find another kernel to check
