Intel Divulges Information on TRIM for Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| Since that post, I got in contact with
| Intel who clarified a few of the points
| surrounding the issue of using TRIM under
| Linux. Sure, this is a topic that bores
| most people, but as a full-time user of the
| OS, I care about it quite a bit, and I'm
| sure a lot of others out there are in a
| similar situation as me. And as frustrating
| as I've found tracking down the information
| to be, I'm hoping this investigative
| sleuthing will affect a lot more than just
| me.
