According to the linked wikipedia page on the TRIM command, Linux has supported it "since Feb 2010", so I would imagine that anything running the 2.6.32 kernel would correctly utilize that feature if your drive supports it. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
- StavrosK 16y agoThe article says that the "latest, greatest Linux kernels should beware", so I don't know what to think :/
- kevindication 16y agoParse it once more: "Operating systems earlier than Windows 7 and the latest, greatest Linux kernel should beware" Translation: latest, greatest Linux kernels support TRIM.
- StavrosK 16y agoAh, "earlier than (Win 7 and the latest kernel)", rather than "(earlier than Win 7) and the latest kernel". Thanks, looks like I'm covered, then. EDIT: Apparently, Ubuntu is one version behind TRIM support.
- limist 16y agoLooks like you'd need the Linux 2.6.33 kernel: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TRIM#Operating_system_support http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TRIM#Operating_system_support http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=51105 http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=51105
- jolan 16y agoIt also requires filesystem support. ext4 was the first support it. I believe btrfs, nilfs2, and xfs support it now as well.
