Can you guys check if Apple enabled Trim on the Samsung SSDs?

Just wondering.

And can you please post your SSD model #?

Can be found under System Information > Serial-ATA.

You can post all the text or take a screenshot from your SSD. Can remove the serial # if you want.

Cheers!

Thank you for the quick response! Appreciate it!

So this says that Apple enabled Trim on these Samsung drives. The SM256E uses the same controller as the Samsung 830.

So in other words, anyone with a Samsung 830 should enable trim?

Any thoughts? I have a feeling Mountain Lion will enable Trim for non Apple-OEM drives? Anyone with ML and a Samsung 830 can comment?

Here's my Samsung 830 info (from Early 2011 MBP):
