    TRIM need AHCI or not

    TKX. In "supported features", we can see It says you have SMART, LBA, NCQ and TRIM enable (they are highlighted). If you press your D : or E: drives in teh above screen u posted, and they are not SSD, you'll see that trim will be disable and other features will change. Now you should do a...

    TRIM need AHCI or not

    I'd like to know if you have NCQ enable in your win7 in IDE mode? Maybe you can use crystaldiskinfo to see if it's enable. Tkx.

    Updated Intel SSD firmware

    It makes sense, because only the jmicron/gigabyte controller has the IDE port.

    Updated Intel SSD firmware

    I can't idendify the controlers in your BIOS, but you have: - One onboard intel ICH8 controler with 4 SATA ports (maybe 4 yellow/orange ports) - One onboard JMicron/Gigabyte controller with 2 SATA (maybe 2 purple ports) + 1 IDE port You should use the intel ICH8 controller, it's better than...

    Updated Intel SSD firmware

    If the DVD is IDE it is connected to the JMICRON controller and in bios in jmicron controller ( or gigabyte controler as they call it) you can configure that port to IDE or compatible. If the DVD is SATA you can also put it on the gigabyte controler and configure it to IDE or compatible...

    Updated Intel SSD firmware

    If everything fails, try to use the other onboard SATA controller. Configure it to AHCI in BIOS and move your SSD to its 1rst port. Using the other onboard SATA controller with AHCI could work. Your MB has 2 SATA onboard controllers. They call the second controller "gigabyte controler" but...

    Updated Intel SSD firmware

    If you decide to give it another try: - maybe you should try with F13 bios, also there are 2 versions of the board (I dont know if they have diferent bios or not). - Try do do a complete bios reset with MB jumper after you install F13 It's only a suggestion I dont know if it's going to work...

    Updated Intel SSD firmware

    This guy has GIGABYTE 965P-S3 and says: "F13 BIOS works well in AHCI mode, but last F14 BIOS can not boot in ACHCI mode". http://www.motherboardpoint.com/ga-965p-s3-rev-3-3-new-bios-f14-onboard-sata-controllerhang-lockup-t232913.html I dont know if it helps or if you already read it, but he...

    Updated Intel SSD firmware

    If you didnt try it already, maybe you could: 1. update your MotherBoard BIOS to last version 2. make sure the SSD is connected in SATA port0 (maybe the MB has more than one sata controller) What motherboard you have?

    Do SSDs with TRIM, make disk recovery obsolete?

    It was using file recovery software, after the recycle bin was empty or after a "shift-del". The recycle bin undelete works well.

    Do SSDs with TRIM, make disk recovery obsolete?

    This is interesting information, I have a intel x-25m G2 with last TRIM firmware, using win7, yesterday I tried to undelete some files and they were all empty. I did a test with a text file and I could not undelete the file contents. I could undelete the text file and it had the original...
