Re: Linux SSD with no TRIM
As far as the garbage collection is concerned in modern controllers is generally good. TRIM is usually separated to that. It’s make the garbage collection better and more efficient. There are no replacements for one another. If you never let the drive get near full. The one and only sub substitute for Trim would be a utility running on the client (not in the dive) that understands the file system. In LINUX while using the file system that actually zeros out deleted sectors otherwise better suited for SSDs. Depending on exactly how we are using it, perhaps you can just wipe it out periodically, and if necessary restore from any of the image. Tweaking SSD's depends on the type of SSD and what your using it for. Some, like flash drives, need to be protected from constant journaling (like in ext3), or the constant time stamping. Then there's the problem of turning off journaling and dealing with power failures.
