Hello In a original Mac (MacBookPro) and I have a PC Hackintosh. Is there a more suitable freeware check around? Kind regards, JP. Never above 180MB/sec while a dd reaches 260 MB/sec. Maybe someone can crosscheck? Xbench gives funny results anyways. I wounder if this is related to the old firmware on the drive (1.0). Rm takes milliseconds while read/write was the same.
TRIM ENABLER MAC 10.6.8 DRIVER
After restoring the original driver things are back to normal. Oa 500 MB test file was taking appr 10 seconds. However, I did get a weird “halting” issue (pause for 3-20 seconds) every once in a while (week or so) perhaps with TRIM enabled, this will go away haven’t seen it crop up since enabling TRIM, but it was not a common occurrence anyway.

I think lots of SSD chipsets like Samsung’s and the Sandforce chipset already have native garbage collection, so TRIM (which is just OS driven GC) doesn’t really help speeds. Everything went fine (did superduper before, and also used TRIM enabler’s backup feature). I did this with a MBP 2010 13″ and Vertex2 60GB. It appears the Agility 2 has garbage collection anyway.

Since running the tool didn’t seem to help (and may have made things worse), I’d rather avoid the voodoo of enabling a feature Apple intentionally left out. Here are my XBench results (best of 2 runs after a reboot): 220.62 – initial reboot of my stock system 246.93 – upgraded my OCZ firmware from 1.20 - 1.32 (latest) 242.97 – ran TRIM tool 1.1 (latest as of 3/29 12 AM PST) 232.71 – after zeroing free space 233.94 – after running terminal commands 234.51 – after removing TRIM tool It looks like zeroing free space caused performance to degrade, and as you can see, running the terminal commands after that didn’t help.

Thanks Oskar!! Have a Late 2008 15″ Unibody Macbook Pro with a 120 GB OCZ Agility 2 SSD. Stats from Xbench show exact figures experienced when i tested the disk out of the box (and after a firmware update) i.e my disk is back to its former glory of snappy boot times and application loads. System profiler also says that TRIM is enabled.
TRIM ENABLER MAC 10.6.8 UPDATE
Just thought i’d mention this to anyone who was in my position when considering this update I just ran this prior to an ‘erase free space’ command on my 2010 2.4GHz 13″ MBP with an intel x25-v installed in the optical drive bay with no problems.
TRIM ENABLER MAC 10.6.8 PATCH
Does anyone measured performance before and after the patch that shows the positive change? Please be advised before applying this patch. I tested the performance before and after the patch and found out that it actually degrades performance a lot. TRIM: YES is not an indication of whether it actually boosts performance. I’d like to issue a warning to all early-adopters of possible performance degradation with this fix until Restore functionality is added to this hack. Fortunately I restored from a SuperDuper backup, and everything’s back to normal. Restarted, and it ran for about three minutes before “mdworker” went mad - 80% CPU, 90% CPU, 100% CPU whole computer beachballed again. Then the fans came on and everything beachballed. It initially seemed to work, and the computer ran fine for a couple hours. Lesson learned: I should have waited for the release of the TRIM installer/enabled with the “Restore” function. It not only increases data writing speeds, but it increases the lifetime of the SSD itself. Trim is must-have feature for most Solid State Drives. #YosemiteBeta #TrimEnabler 3 essential with any installed SSD works. LOL I love my Macbook Pro Mid 2012:D SSD Fusiondrive with #trimenabler on OS X. I installed it on my late-2008 unibody MacBook, with OWC Mercury Extreme Pro SSD 256GB (revision 310A13F0). Could you please release a version to disable the patch? Any help would be greatly appreciated. FYI, I was using OCZ Vertex Agility 2 Firmware v1.11. I used XBench to test the performance before the patch and after the patch and the performance has decreased considerably compared to the original state after the patch. Although I was able to successfully enable TRIM support for my OCZ Vertex Agility 2 256GB SSD, the performance has degraded a lot.
