Marvell 9128 supports TRIM.

Right, but the Marvell driver doesn't. Here's the best description I found.

Marvell 9128 - Revisited (briefly)
The response they got from Gigbayte was this: "Marvel SE9128 controller can support TRIM command only with Win7 built-in driver, however, Win7 built-in driver doesn’t support SATA hot plug. With Marvell’s own driver, it doesn’t support TRIM command, but it enables hot plug."

I don't swear by any of this. Lot's of confusion about it. But the above is closest to the "real" answer I've seen.

Thank you very much guys.

On another matter but related to this thread: With me been visually challenged, I had to get a technician into to fit my new SSD. The disk was purchased with a 2.5" to 3.5" converter but would not marry-up to the screw holes on the caddy. He managed to fix it with one holding screw and because of the light weight of the SSD said it seemed fine. Is then anyway of getting around this issue does anyone know?

Thanks for any/all help

That's great Hopalong, you've put my mind at rest :)

Thanks very much.
