SATA requires power cycle on reboot or it won't mount #443

Hi, I have got SATA HDD connected as data storage (ext4, data=journal, boot fsck enabled). Every 3-5 reboots the boot procedure stops during mounting the HDD. Once the problem occurs, power cycling just the cubieboard A10 won't help, but power cycling the both cubieboard and the HDD works.

Its not the boot fsck as it won't finish even after 24 hours and during good reboots the fsck takes lot less time. Any idea how to fix it or the whats the cause? I tried to power off the HDD before rebooting but that's another issue #442. Could weak PSU be the culprit?
