An adjustable performance boot system includes a processing system and an SPI memory storing firmware volumes. The processing system retrieves, via an SPI interface at a first SPI interface performance level, a first firmware volume including a first hash value generated using a second firmware volume. The processing system then increases the SPI interface performance level, retrieves the second firmware volume via the SPI interface at the increased SPI interface performance level, generates a second hash value using that second firmware volume and, in response to it not matching the first hash value, lowers the SPI interface performance level. The processing system then retrieves the second firmware volume via the SPI interface at the decreased SPI interface performance level, generates a third hash value using that second firmware volume and, in response to it matching the first hash value, uses that second firmware volume to provide a BIOS. 1. An adjustable performance boot system , comprising:a Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) memory subsystem storing a plurality of firmware volumes; and retrieve, from the SPI memory subsystem via the SPI interface at a first SPI interface performance level, a first firmware volume of the plurality of firmware volumes that includes a first hash value that was previously generated by performing a hashing operation on a second firmware volume of the plurality of firmware volumes;', 'increase the first SPI interface performance level to a second SPI interface performance level;', 'retrieve, from the SPI memory subsystem via the SPI interface at the second SPI interface performance level, the second firmware volume;', 'perform, on the second firmware volume that was retrieved at the second SPI interface performance level, the hashing operation to generate a second hash value;', 'lower, in response to the second hash value not matching the first hash value included in the first firmware volume, the second SPI interface performance ...
