Slow boot and an odd warning: ata1.00 Read log page 0x00, Emask 0x04

You should check if there is any firmware update for the ancient Lenovo. That may be the solution.
Or you might have some luck with the grub parameter libata.force=noncq in order to disable AHCI ATA NCQ

sudo nano /etc/default/grub

Change the line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" to
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash libata.force=noncq"

tap ctrl+o to overwrite, then enter to save current configuration. Tap ctrl+x to exit the editor.
Now, you must run

sudo update-grub

in order for the changes to take effect. Reboot and test...
