The minute a successful company does something that someone does not like or thinks is not right? They are immediately called Evil and purported to be plotting against people. Success seems to bring hate in this world. In the 90's it was Microsoft who was the evil empire now its Apple. Why ship a computer with SSD trim enabled if it does not have any SSD drives in it? Its not like they made it impossible for people to enable trim, they didn't. All Apple did was shut off trim enabled for any Macs that did not ship with an SSD. Or you can go into terminal and type in the command line that will do it. You can either get the add on app that will do it for you and that is free. johnJohn like others have said its really easy to set your Mac to Trim enabled. as the Mac BS of ONLY on computers that have them from the factory is a joke. i would like to use them as audio drives but will avoid until i have a PC built. but I use my SSD for a system drive and barely write to it. that being said my older Mac does not support Trim. or, not write to any given area Too many times. simply it spreads out the data during the writing process so that it will not use any area too much. Leo leport (sp) had an explanation saturday re: Trim. With disabled TRIM and many years of medium-heavy use a SSD will die and only be able to be read. Its more likely other parts will break before. To make it short a SSD with enabled TRIM means their nands practically never burn out. Well in practice if you only write about 5-10GB per day onto it (which is alot for most i guess) even a TRIM disabled SSD should stay alive longer than you will use such an antiquated Hardware at this time.Īnd even the nand chips are not rewriteable again you can still read the data on them to copy all on it to a new disk. Without TRIM it will drastically decrease these 5 years to a point where a SSD even in common use is full of degenerated nands after 2 years if you write 100GB of data each day on it. If Apple really act like this im glad i always stood away from that brand.įor example: With TRIM enabled on a 256GB SSD you can write 5 years every day about 100gb of data onto that drive before the nands are no more rewriteable. A SSD with disabled TRIM has a much lower lifespan.
