Intel 730 RAID 0 + Trim

[idata]

Hi,

So i know TRIM can be run on a raid 0 and it requires Windows 8.1 or Windows 10(Which i have) with a version of Intel RSTE (which i think i have a version that is required) but the Intel SSD Toolbox can't run TRIM on my RAID? Is there a reason as to why?

they are Intel 730 240GBDrives

Any help would be appreciated

Hello Rehok,

The functionality on Intel® Solid State Drive Toolbox to run TRIM in a RAID 0 configuration is supported, do you have screenshots of the error you are getting?Also, could you please download and run https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/25293/Intel-System-Support-Utility?product=91600 Intel® System Support Utility, then use the tool to create a full report, save the file and attach it to the thread using the Advanced Editor?We will be waiting for your response.Regards,NC

Hi NC,

I don't get any errors it just doesn't let me run the Optimizer and i can scan but it doesn't change anything

Hello Rehok,

Thanks for the information provided. First thing we would like you to try is to update the Intel® Solid State Drive Toolbox in this https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/26085/Intel-Solid-State-Drive-Toolbox link.Also, we noticed that you have the Intel® Rapid Storage Technology Enterprise, however, the Intel® Solid State Drive Toolbox works with the Intel® Rapid Storage Technology, you can download it https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/25165/Intel-Rapid-Storage-Technology-Intel-RST-RAID-Driver here.Once you have done this please let us know if the situation persists.Regards,NC

Just before i install RST, Will this wipe my current RAID?

Hi Rehok,

We can let you know that by installing the Intel® Rapid Storage Technology, the RAID will not be wiped, however, you may not be able to monitor the SSDs like you normally do with the tool.Please let us know if you have any more questions.Regards,NC

Hi Rehok,

There are a few things we would like to get from you.First, could you share with us a screenshot of toolbox where the main information of the SSD is shown? (Including FW version)Also, can you double check the version of Intel® Rapid Storage Technology installed? This because from the logs we have it does not match correctly. If you can also share a screenshot it will be better.Let us know so we can keep researching on this.Regards,NC

Hi Rehok,

We just got a confirmation that TRIM on RAID 0 setup is not supported under Windows® 10, just like it is not in Windows 8* and Windows Server 2012*.We are working in our documentation so this can be updated as well.Let us know if you need anything else.Regards,NC
