SanDisk does not offer a tool that will enable TRIM in theses MAC OS, however there are third party tools available that will enable TRIM in MAC OS. If TRIM is disabled you may see write performance degrade as the SSD is used. MAC operating systems 10.10.3 and older versions disable TRIM by default. TRIM is supported for RAID (0,1,4,5 & 10) volumes when using the third-party SoftRAID application, including TRIM support with non-Apple SSD devices. I too found that I could NOT get trimforce to enable trim in HS. This was an app I had used before the trimforce option was available. In MAC OS Yosemite(10.10.4) and above you can enable TRIM by opening "terminal app" and enter command "sudo trimforce enable", then enter "y" when asked do you wish to proceed, enter "y" for reboot notification and your MAC will automatically reboot when complete. I was able to get it enabled using the latest version of the Trim Enabler app. SanDisk SSD with Trim command support maintains the performance at an optimal level (as fresh out of the box) over its lifetime and reduces the wear and tear of the drive, as it reclaims the occupied garbage space in advanced, avoiding unnecessary read-modify-write operations. In addition, the wear-and-tear on the SSD is also reduced significantly, as the SSD can effectively manage all the reclaimed spaces. Since a memory block must be erased before it can be re-programmed, TRIM improves performance by pro-actively erasing blocks containing invalid ( garbage) data, allowing the SSD to write new data without first having to perform a time-consuming erase command.
SUPPORT THIRD PARTY SSD TRIM ENABLER FULL
The Trim command enables an Operating System to inform an SSD which blocks of data are no longer considered to be in use and can be reclaimed internally by the SSD to ensure that later write operations perform at full speed. I’ve read so many conflicting answers it’s like looking up symptoms on WebMD. I just set this up and I’m on the fence about using Trim enabler. E.) My SSD only uses Trim by enabling through OS. SanDisk SSDs offer TRIM command support, which is enabled by default in Windows 7 and above, designed to maintain the performance of SSD at an optimal level over the lifetime of the drive. D.) My SSD does support GarbageCollection.
