To get more information from smartctl you can use the --identify=wb option instead of -i and that should give you a lot more detail about what then drives claims to (and not to) support. On the version in Kubuntu 13.10 (6.1+svn3812-1) it only reports 3 things regarding TRIM for my drives. chris@quad:/tmp$ sudo smartctl --identify=wb -d sat /dev/sdb | egrep -i 'trim| discard' 69 14 1 Deterministic data after trim supported 69 5 0 Trimmed LBA range(s) returning zeroed data supported 169 0 1 Trim bit in DATA SET MANAGEMENT command supported I'm currently doing a git clone of their SVN repo to see if there's any new functionality that will gather any more information. cheers, Chris -- Chris Samuel : http://www.csamuel.org/ : Melbourne, VIC
