Hope we're going to see TRIM support on the X25-M G1's. Mine's already showing signs of degraded performance :/

The poor man's TRIM is to copy the entire disk's data elsewhere, do an ATA Secure Erase operation on the SSD, then repartition, format, and copy everything back. No chance of doing it online though.

My G1 "broke" and I RMA'd it and they sent me a G2. nothing to see here, move along..

Intel says the G1 is not getting TRIM.

(I learned my lesson about firmware upgrades when I bought a 28.8 modem that was "fully upgradeable to 33.6" and then the update was never released.)
