Win7 Trim Support List

[ymboc]

Has anyone compiled a list of all the drives with confirmed Windows 7 Trim support?

I've been looking and have tried to compile my own list but frankly documentation from the drive manufacturers is (purposely?) sparse.

biggest thing to look for is ocz/patriot/corsair drives with 200+ Mb/s reads, and intel G2 drives that are around 250Mb/s read. kingston drives are intel-based in some but not all cases, their slower drives are samsung units and might not ever get trim, their faster drives (170Mb/s or faster read I believe) are intel units and will probably end up with trim.

drives to avoid: g1 intel drives, slower drives of any stripe

You're saying all drives with over 200+ MB/s reads have native support for Windows 7 Trim?

(Can't possibly be true / that simple can it?)

How about reading the actual article from Anandtech:

I thought it was firmware 1.4

I did read that actual article (plus many others here and elsewhere) before posting. Thanks.

The issue is that that article refers to only a few specific models from a small handful of manufacturers. So I know those models support trim, but what about the rest? Who else uses Indilinx controllers? Which drives support Win7 trim?

Have you tried looking up specs from the manufacturer's websites? Trim support or the controller used are not provided.

Sometimes you know from a review or article that a specific model supports trim, but it's not clear whether or not all the other models from the same marketing family/name do as well.
