MacBook Pro :: SSD TRIM Support Invaluable - Manual Trim Command?

Jun 2, 2010

I purchased an Intel 34nm 160GB SSD 12 months ago to install in my MBP 13". It has been an excellent drive, however, started to significantly slow down over the last few months. The only way I was able to recover to original speeds was by formatting the entire drive as a windows drive and running the Intel SSD Toolbox app in Win 7 (manual trim command).Finally I reinstalled OSX and voila drive was as fast as when I initially purchased it.Either Intel needs to release a OSX compatible toolbox app or Apple needs to build the functionality into OSX.I know this has been a topic before but thought I'd share my experience.

MacBook Pro :: SSD Let Lack Of TRIM Support ?

Jul 29, 2009

I've spent the best part of the day researching SSD drives, I'm wanting to pop one in my MBP.I've been looking at the OCZ Vertex and also the Intel X-25M Gen 2.I've set my heart on getting the OCZ but after spending a good hour on their forums, it seems that (like all other drives) there isn't a 'wiper' tool available for OSX.Should this affect my decision? No-one knows if Snow Leopard will support TRIM and I don't want to left with a drive that has lost most of it's umph after a few weeks.I don't claim to know all the details of TRIM (I'm a mere-mortal wanting faster performance), so please feel free to put my mind at ease

MacBook Pro :: Are SSD's Worthwhile Without TRIM Support?

Mar 3, 2010

First post so I apologize for any rules I may be breaking. A lot of discussion on this forum has centered around SSD's and their use. From what I have gathered, the price is quite high, but the speed is impressive. I am going to university next year and am looking for a new laptop. I have used Windows all my life and don't have anything that really requires OSX (graphics applications, etc). However, I like the design of the MBP and want something high quality that will last me 4 years. The SSD's are looking pretty appealing for the sheer speed, but OSX doesn't support TRIM, which could affect future speeds.

Mac Pro :: Trim Support Coming In OSX - Core I7 Processor?

Jun 14, 2010

Let's hope this happens for Mac Pro's as well.Here's the story on AppleInsider...Apple may be laying the foundation for TRIM support in future Macs, a technology that should allow their solid state flash drives to maintain optimal performance throughout the life span of the systems.The Mac maker's most recent 13-inch MacBook Pros display an option for TRIM support in their system profilers on SSD-equipped models, one which isn't present in either the second-generation unibody 15-inch MacBook Pros or the latest refresh sporting Intel's Core i5 and Core i7 processors.

MacBook Pro :: In Absence Of OSX TRIM Support, How Can I Restore SSD Performance On A Mac?

Apr 2, 2010

Whenever the MBP refresh happens I intend to upgrade the stock HDD to a 7200rpm 500GB HDD or, less likely, to an SSD. An SSD had been my first option until I learned about SSD performance degradation and the lack of TRIM support in OSX. I was ready to stomach the massive SSD price premium, but the lack of TRIM would most likely rule it out completely for me. And I recall reading something about the MBP hardware connection (perhaps the the SATA connector) having a slight bottleneck compared to SSD-equipped Windows machines; so some of the top of the line SSDs won't be able to max out their transfer rates on OSX. (This is the best, not so informative, link I can find now referring to that impaired performance: http://macperformanceguide.com/Revie...tml#Single_MBP) With these performance issues, I've become perplexed why SSDs are popular amongst some Apple users

Hardware :: Apple Laying Ground Work For TRIM Support In Future SSD-based Macs?

I need to erase the soundtrack from a movie, using the QT X player in Snow Leopard. Can this be done, without using the QT 7 player? Also, how can I remove a video part in the middle of a movie, using the QT X player? Apparently, I can only remove the start and end parts, using the trim option (command-T).

MacBook Pro :: Using Trim In Boot Camp For SSD

Jun 21, 2010

So after knowing nothing about SSDs I finally ordered this one for my 2010 i5 MBP.

[URL]

I have searched and I know Snow Leopard doesn't support TRIM yet but I was wondering if I use boot camp and install Windows 7 won't TRIM be available then? I can install all the software that came with the SSD under Windows. So my question is if I do that will the Trim feature only work on the Windows 7 partition or the entire drive?

MacBook Pro :: Enabling TRIM On Non Apple SSD?

Apr 29, 2012

I own a MBP 13" early 2011 model  I just recently Upgraded my 320GB hard drive to an intel 520 SSD (240gb). After setting up lion 10.7.3 i realized that TRIM was not enabled by default. after searching around I found a way to enable it. However, I've also read that alot of sandforce 2281 controllers have their own form of garbage collection. intel uses some custom firmware they written so would it be benificial if i enable trim or not?

Applications :: How To Trim Handbrake Apple Videos

Oct 20, 2010

Wirelessly posted (Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU iPhone OS 4_1 like Mac OS X; en-us) AppleWebKit/532.9 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0.5 Mobile/8B117 Safari/6531.22.7)

I'm converting stuff with Handbrake using Apple TV preset for my iPhone 4 and 1G Apple TV. Works great.

However, what app for Mac is there to then trim the video? I want to trim the start and end as sometimes ends up being about 15mins, and I never watch the whole credits on end.

Preferably free or low cost. I have iMovie 09 but think this will re-encode the file? I just want to trim it.

Mac Pro :: SSD Restore Alternative While Waiting For True TRIM?

Aug 1, 2009

Just found this on diglloyd's site: his solution to the SSD slowdown with usage (because of our lack of TRIM support) is to:

1) clone your SSD (back-up)
2) copy a single 100%-size file on it (like copy a 73GB file onto a 80GB SSD)
3) erase that file
4) clone it back in

Is it really that simple? [URL:....]

MacBook Pro :: SSD And TRIM Command Possible With Bootcamp/VMWare?

Jan 23, 2010

I�m not quite sure if this has been mentioned before, but I was wondering if the TRIM command would be functional if I was to run Windows 7 via VMware or bootcamp?

I know Snow Leopard does not support TRIM and Windows 7 does, so I was hoping as a workaround to this issue, I would run windows 7 on vmware and maybe reap the benefits of TRIM support in Windows 7? I do on occasion use Windows 7 via VMware, so I'm not only considering installing it for just the TRIM command function.

MacBook Pro :: Hybrid Disk Drive And Trim

Dec 11, 2014

I have installed a Seagate 1 TB hybrid drive (8gb flash, 2.5", 5400 rpm) in my Mac 8.1 (early 2011 MBP, 16 gb memory), which runs the Yosemite OS.   After reading about SSD's and Trim, and the negative effect of Trim disabling upon SSDs after several months, I am wondering if there is a need to enable/disable Trim upon a THD (traditional hd drv) which has 8gb flash for quick booting.?

OS X :: Unable To Trim Movies Once They Are Opened / Edit Videos In Snow Leopard

Sep 24, 2009

Used to run Flip4Mac Pro Version 2.2.3.7 with Quicktime 7 Pro on Leopard.Upgraded to Snow Leopard and got the 'Quicktime must be installed on this machine...' messages. OK, fair enough. Known issue.

Installed the Snow Leopard compatible 2.3.0.11-BETA with Pro licence but now have lost the ability to trim movies once they are opened in the Quicktime X window. However, if I navigate and open with Quicktime 7 Pro I can trim them.

Can anyone explain I should expect to happening and/or if this a bug or what?

OS X :: Equivalent Extension For Mac?

Sep 2, 2009

I am using Xcode to learn C from a windows-oriented "teach yourself" book. The executable file for the Hello World! program ends in .exe.I imagine that this would run if you double-clicked it in a windows operating system. Is there an equivalent extension for the mac? Or is it always only ran through the terminal program in the Xcode program?
