Bill_VA Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 I understand that TRIM doesn't work on SSDs in a RAID configuration, but is there a garbage collection process that runs on drives without TRIM running? BTW, I have 3 SSDs in my system. Two F60s in RAID0 for my OS and programs, and an F120 for user files. TRIM is on for the F120 I know, but what is in the Sandy controller in the F60 to perform similar functions. This is a new machine I just finished building. I didn't have much of a budget limit. My WEI score is 7.6, this thing screams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

POE_UK Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 OK thanks for this info, is duraclass built into the ssd or do you have to run a program to get it working in raid 0? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted March 11, 2011 Corsair Employees Share Posted March 11, 2011 Duraclass is hardware based so its on the actual SSD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
POE_UK Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Oh right, thanks, some people are telling me though that using 2 of these f60 drives in raid0 will wear them down quickly without trim? is duraclass a hardware version of trim? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
