You didnt include a link… but a little google work produced this

However, this is all bad news. It says that this does not support win xp, vista or 2000.
I STILL need TRIM for win xp for my toshiba ssd.

Please recheck that. The start post contains a link to the OCZ SSD Utility. There is no real difference between your (OCZ US page) and my link (OCZ Europe page). Both are in english language.
None of the old Windows Operating Systems up to Vista natively do support TRIM resp. are able to send TRIM commands into an SSD.
If you want TRIM support while running any SSD, you need to use Win7/8/10.
Try O&O Defrag 17 (not free: trial available. 18 installs if you run Orca on the MSI to remove the version check, but I don’t know how well it actually works on XP). With Intel’s AHCI drivers installed (a requirement, I believe), CyberShadow’s trimcheck program said O&O Defrag successfully TRIMmed my Samsung SSD on XP Pro 32-bit.

noted.
however, there are a lot of us who want a MANUAL application to issue the TRIM on win xp, vista, etc.
this was supposed to be part of the vendor’s tools to assist us on these older systems where we are using their SSD.
Still waiting for an application that can issue the TRIM for Toshiba SSD on win xp.

What about the following tools?
1. O&O Defrag
2. Anvil’s Storage Utilities

---- It still can’t see the SSD if you have it on the Raid Controller
@Fernando ,
Intel SSD Tool box v3.3.6 and i750, driver v1.7.0.1002:
Do you have observed any ‘system access violation Exception’ crash under W10 v1607 ?
Not yet, but maybe because the Intel Toolbox has been installed a few minutes ago (after having read your post).
This is what I get:
Fernando,
I see 2 things different from my i750 400GB system (W10 x64 v1493.105) SSD:
1) you never had used the Optimizer Function.
why ? Intel recommends once per week.
Do you have overposition space on your SSD ?
2) the size of your C: drive is small.
Do you have other partitions on this SSD ?
Here is the partition schema I have currently.
My answers:
a) As I have written in my last post, the Intel SSD Toolbox had been installed a few minutes before I took the pictures. That is why the Toolbox gave the information, that its "Intel SSD Optimizer" had never been run before.
b) If I want to optimize my system drive, I always use the Win10 in-box "Optimizer" (former Defrag Tool). I run the Win10 "Optimizer", when it is needed and before I do a benchmark test, but not once per week.
c) Yes, I left some space of my Intel 750 SSD unallocated for overprovisioning purposes.
Yes, since 400 GB seemed to be too much space for the system drive, I have created a ca. 100 GB sized partition D on it, where I store my Downloads and some big sized data (to force the performance while processing them).
