M1 iMac with external OWC 2TB Envoy Pro Express SSD
Works fine, unless its capacity is now down to 50GB free space - but only 900GB is actually used.

1TB of space is just ... Gone

I messaged OWC twice in the last week but their technical support by chat is always "unavailable" and I haven't gotten any answer yet.

My iMac is on 24 hours so the SSD is on power and it should be able to run all necessary GC,TRIM and whatever jobs.
Is there ANY way that I can manually get the SSD to do GC and free that 1TB?
Because even with a large HDD for Backup, its not just an easy job to reformat the entire SSD and then copy 900GB data back.
