SSD RAID 0 TRIM Not Working

propaintballa · 13 May 2013 at 23:16

Hey Guys,

I've just got a couple of OCZ Vertex 3 120GB SSDs and put them in RAID 0 for my Windows install. Usually, I wouldn't have faffed around with SSDs in RAID but it's a seriously long story, so I digress.

I'm running a Gigabyte Z77X-UD5H Motherboard with latest BIOS (F14) the SSDs plugged into the two Intel SATA 6gb/s ports and the latest version of Intel RST. I'm now trying to test the functionality of TRIM with this https://github.com/CyberShadow/trimcheck and it will not tell me that it's working at all, no matter how long I leave it or reboot etc etc.

I'm wondering if anyone has any advice on this?!

EDIT: Running Windows 7 by the way

Raid does not support trim on SSD's....only on single SSD's I believe...someone will correct me if I am wrong

Nahh, TRIM is supported in RAID now on 7 Series Intel chipsets, it also supposedly works on 6 Series although I think that's unofficially

or type in cmd
Type fsutil behavior query disabledeletenotify
DisableDeleteNotify = 1 (Windows TRIM commands are disabled)
DisableDeleteNotify = 0 (Windows TRIM commands are enabled)

To enable TRIM:

Open the Start Menu, type CMD
Right click the icon and Run as Administrator
Type fsutil behavior set disabledeletenotify 0

well if that is true then I will give it a go on mine...all
ways thought it wasn't working with a raid set up

can't give you any advice as to why it's not working but just checked mine and it says trim appears to be working. did'nt do anything paticular on my install, latest bios from asus, drives plugged into the intel sata 3 ports.
