To check to see if you have Trim support, select the Apple menu while holding down the Option key. Under System Information , scroll to the name of your storage interface under Hardware. Garbage collection occurs automatically using proprietary Active Garbage Collection functionality created by the manufacturer of the solid state drive.
Because garbage collection is so important to the functioning of the drive, all drives have it. Micron makes all of its solid state drives from the silicon up, and garbage collection is a vital part of the drive.

This is a problem if you have an SSD. Windows should automatically enable TRIM if you have a modern version of Windows with a modern solid-state drive. This is necessary because, if many TRIM requests are sent to a drive at once, the requests may build up in a queue and then be discarded. To check that Windows is performing retrim optimizations on a schedule, open the Optimize Drives application. By default, Windows will run the retrim optimization on a weekly schedule. These options should just be enabled by default.

In most cases switching from Microsoft drivers to Intel drivers requires a system reinstall due to the base device name identifier string changing the system usually won't boot after that, and if it does, it'll BSoD for a different reason.
Microsoft's do work and are pretty good. I have no experience with any other SSDs other than these on Windows 7. I get my drivers from here: » www. Do not skim it, do not jump around. Educational point to take away: the name of the device itself may have "Intel" in the name, but the name of the device is controlled through a different set of informational files specifically. INF and does not reflect what actual driver is being used. That's why the "Details" tab was important.
There's also the whole situation involving BIOS settings, which is highly convoluted because every motherboard vendor seems to use different terminology. Intel Series 5 is known to have support for that "mixed mode", and is considered somewhat "legacy" or "old" at this point; later series Series 7 onward tend to offer only two modes: PATA emulation mode and pure AHCI.
Some newer models don't even offer the emulation mode any more. I know absolutely nothing about AMD systems. This is as much information as I can dump here for the time being.
Thank you. I will follow your cautions and advice carefully if we decide to try new drivers. It is running perfectly with very fast performance of the Samsung SSD in it so no changes needed there. That's the laptop where the Samsung SSD is running slower than the expected performance and much slower than the in the Intel based laptop. Maybe the answer is that AMD is simply that much slower.
As to the number of ATA ports. There are four shown, but in reality there is only one for the laptop's hard drive. That is all it supports. There are virtually no options to do anything in the bios given it is a consumer laptop Pavillion line and not a high-end, high priced laptop. You are deep well of knowledge and explain things well. This solves our problem and answers our question here.
