Hello, 

 

if you are using the latest SP of Vista you and the drive was installed in the bios with achi mode enabled, then the trim function works automatically already. 

 

 


 

As far as I know, the above information is incorrect.  Everything I can find online seems to indicate that Vista does not support TRIM at all.  Does anyone have a link to a document that shows that Vista does indeed support TRIM?

 

That being said, I think you can manually run TRIM on your SSD with the drive manufacturer’s diagnostic/management software.

 Only thing I can tell you is if you “upgrade” the operating system to Windows 7 or above, the TRIM feature will be automatically enabled.  I am going to do that very soon because Microsoft will no longer support Windows Vista after April, 2017.
