Peridoic SSD Maintenance Using TRIM Functionality
Hello all,
I just did a clean install of Win 7 to a newly installed Patriot Pyro 60GB SSD. I verified that TRIM was active (via the "fsutil behavior query DisableDeleteNotify" and the result was "0"); however, my new SSD shows up as a standard hard drive in the "Defrag and Optimize" view and if I hit the defrag button, it looks like it is doing a normal defrag (eg, Pass 0 completed, etc) so I have disabled scheduled defrags. Now, is this normal bahavior for Win 7 and is TRIM just working in background? The reason I ask is because I have the same SSD installed on a Win 8 machine and the "Defrag and Optimize" view correctly identifies it as a "solid state device" and if I try to defrag it manually, Win 8 invokes the TRIM function (the progression now shows TRIM started/completed information). Thanks for your help, plsrepli |

What does your HDD look like in Windows Experience Index (WEI)?
Control Panel > Performance Information and Tools (on that page, right-hand column under "Primary Hard Disk"). |

My Windows 7 is the same. Windows should know that the drive is a SSD and won't place it in the scheduled defrag. However, you can force a defrag (not advisable) by selecting the drive and clicking defrag. Mine shows last run of today because I clicked on Analyze. Check the Selected drives to see if your C drive is listed. If it not, Windows knows it's a SSD.

If you REALLY want to know if TRIM is actually working on your SSD.... I was never convinced that TRIM was actually working on my Crucial 128 M4. I did the "fsutil..." from the command prompt & got a "0", which indicated it was working. - Wrong! I just recently found that TRIM actually was NOT functioning.
