privatethedawn Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Hello, i have 2 x F60 (with CSSD-F60GB2-BRKT product code) and Raid 0 them. My motherboard gigabyte x58a ud7, bios version F8B i used XHD ( extreme hard drive) in bios to raid and installed windows 7 x64. Installed the other motherboard drivers with its CD. after those steps i check TRIM, "fsutil behavior query DisableDeleteNotify" answer is "DisableDeleteNotify = 0" But there is not any certain information about TRIM command with Raid. So, IS THE TRIM COMMAND REALLY ACTIVE ? please answer cetainly, or silence... Yes, TRIM is ACTIVE ?, or NO TRIM is NOT ACTIVE...? i fed up with inadequate informations any where... Please a certainly answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Yes, but it's not what you think. YES, the OS has TRIM turned on. NO, the TRIM commands do not reach the SSDs due to the RAID controller making the OS think it's one large drive. To the OS, the RAID storage is not capable of TRIM.

Wired Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 It's COMPLETELY out of Corsair's hands. It has to do with what implements RAID. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
privatethedawn Posted January 11, 2011 Author Share Posted January 11, 2011 hello again, i have search and find some infos that the driver "RAID: Intel® Rapid Storage Technology Driver for Intel Desktop Boards" has accept TRIM commands. Drivers URL: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/detail_desc.aspx?agr=N&ProductID=&DwnldID=15251 is it true ? if so how to install this driver ? Infos say that Thankfully, Intel has solved the problem with the release of a TRIM-compatible driver which finally brings the technology to SSDs in RAID arrays. Available over on Intel's website the new Rapid Storage Technology driver allows users of selected Intel motherboards to enjoy the benefits of RAID without losing the benefits of TRIM support.

Wired Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 That's not the latest RST driver. You install it by running the downloaded exe. Also, the driver supports TRIM, but RAID itself does not. 2 completely different things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hapatingjaky Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 The latest RST driver from intel can be located here: http://www.station-drivers.com/page/intel%20raid.htm 10.1.0.1008 TRIM is only supported through IDE and AHCI. AHCI uses the same driver as raid but the TRIM command will not pass on a raid setup as the controller does not support TRIM under any raid conditions. You use Idle Garbage Collection to restore performance on a setup that can not run TRIM. To do an Idle GC first make sure that under power management options turn off hardrive is set to never. Next step is to simply log off the PC or reboot into the bios and let it sit for many many hours. The Sandforce controller has a very poor method of Idle Garbage Collection, you may need to let it sit for as long as 24hours in some cases.
