CSM enabled>Legacy Only, Secure Boot>Other OS; I cannot get trim working when I use Trim check .06 on my sata 2 raid 0 drives (2x corsair force gt 240). I can confirm that trim is working on my second raid 0 that is on sata 3g (2 x samsung pro) that I use for games etc. The OS is on sata 2. Is there a trick to activating trim in windows 8.1 64bit. OS of course was a clean install. Using bios 4901 with all updated modules and microcodes. I’ve tried revooting after initiating trim check tool .06, waited 20 secs, 20mins etc but it still tells me that Trim is not working. Can you please help me out here? I also tried running optimize drive before i ran the tool. Thanks in advance
@ RickSteele: I am rather surprised about your report, that the TrimCheck Tool cannot detect TRIM activity within your DEV_2822 RAID0 array, when the SSDs are connected to Intel SATA2 ports. Usually TRIM should natively work within DEV_2822 RAID0 arrays of X79 chipset mainboards. This is what I suggest to do: As first step do the manual TRIM test by using a Hex Editor (look >here<). The TrimCheck Tool cannot detect very low TRIM activities, but the manual test can. If even the manual TRIM test method should show negative results (no Zeros or FFs, where the test file was), I recommend to insert the “Universally TRIM modified” variant of the currently used Intel RAID ROM version into your mainboard BIOS, flash it, enable CSM and force the Option ROM messages. Then re-run the TrimCheck Tool. If you can post the SataDriver GUID you are using, I will post the “Universally TRIM modified” SataDriver version as well.
Thanks very much for your most timely reply Fernando-most appreciated. I have posted the link to and quoted you in the ROG thread; it is now up to jyotidhami to reply. (This is his system we are discussing)
