eknkc Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Hi, I have installed a Neutron GTX 240GB on my iMac and it's been working great. However, as Apple is being a jerk as always, it does not support TRIM on third party SSD drives by default. I have to use a tool named Trim Enabler to use it. My question is, should I? Cause I read a couple of times that OWC does not recommend enabling TRIM on SSDs with Sandforce chips. They say the garbage collection handles cleanup pretty well. As far as I know, Garbage Collection and TRIM complement each other. But you know, those guys are building SSDs to so they should know better than me. Should I just go ahead and enable it using the tool? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toasted Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Enable the tool and see if you experience any problems. If you do, don't use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eknkc Posted December 31, 2012 Author Share Posted December 31, 2012 In case anyone is interested, I've my drive running with TRIM enabled on Mountain Lion since the first post. Everything seems ok and disk performance is really great. Seems like it's ok to use the "hacky" TRIM solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
