Might not be many out there in that category, but it's a fair warning to a novice looking to upgrade his system.īefore this thread dies completely regarding Apple and it's lack of proper TRIM support for third party SSDs until their El Capitan version arrives, it seems that OWC is not tho only suppler with some of their SSD drives: OS X El Capitan Opens Door to TRIM Support on Third-Party SSDs for Improved Performance - Mac Rumors With An OWC SSD, There’s No Need For TRIM | Other World Computing Blog mercury ssd at īut also has been producing self supporting TRIM SSDs since about 2012 as well that I just recently discovered: First Third-Party SSD With Native OS X TRIM Support Launched by Angelbird - Mac Rumors Third-party SSD vendors address Apple TRIM issue Angelbird | SSD wrk for Mac | Office SSD for Mac But any drive that doesn't have internal garbage collection will eventually slow down. Just about any and every drive will work fine with Yosemite. Nobody found any error in Breen's article that I could find. So do Samsung, at least in some SSDs.Īnd in the comments, nobody "corrected" Breen, they just added more drive manufacturers to the list that are using SandForce or claim garbage collection is built in. It happens that OWC drives use SandForce. So his suggestion, and what Harry and I have been saying, is that if you want to put in an SSD, get one with a garbage collection process built in, preferable the GC in the SandForce processor. Chas_m, did you read Chris Breen's article? He supported what Harry and i said, that Apple does not support TRIM for after-market SSDs, that Trim Enabler from Cindori was a solution to that until Yosemite, when Apple invoked kext signing and killed Trim Enabler.
