When I installed and ran the new toolbox and had some new features. This time when I tried to run a trim it actually gave me an error with some feedback. Apparently the VSS(Volume Shadow Copy) service needs to be in at least MANUAL before doing a trim. I had it disabled. Trim ran successfully.
Secondly, I figured out how to update the firmware. I had a Gigabyte GIGABYTE GA-X58A-UD3R LGA 1366 Intel X58 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard . It has 4 GSATA ports and 2-3 SATA ports. I had my SSD plugged into my GSATA port but it needed to be plugged into my regular ole SATA port. Reason being the firmware update program runs of dos. Im guessing, but whatever, I was able to update the firmware. After updating the firmware I plugged it back into my GSATA port.
All in all the drive runs even faster now, got a little more pep in its step.Statistics: Posted by ElevenBravo — Sun Oct 03, 2010 6:27 am
