Does the Corsair Force GS have built-in Trim support at hardware level?

[arachn1d]

I'm thinking about putting this SSD into my Macbook Pro and I was wondering if Trim support is at the hardware level because afaik OS X doesn't support OS level trim?

I do believe that OS X supports TRIM for "non-supported" SSDs but there is a kext hack that needs to be used. At least that's how it was in Lion.

As for non-TRIM garbage collection... it's all a big nebulous mystery wrapped up in an enigma.

Trim is a command sent by the filesystem, that the driver has to allow through, then the controller PC side, then the controller of the SSD has to understand. If you don't have all that, you don't have trim.
