Allan Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Even enabling TRIM you'll don't get all proper speed of this SSD. Your motherboard only have SATA 3GBs ports, and for get full speed you'll need an SATA 6GBs port. 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/319460-trim-problems-with-yosemiteel-capitansierra/#findComment-2337321 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaLd0n Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Yes, but is great too. My SATA 3 HD in SATA 3 port write 109 MB/SEC. My SSD in SATA 2 port... amazing as usual 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/319460-trim-problems-with-yosemiteel-capitansierra/#findComment-2337330 Share on other sites More sharing options...

darrellw Posted December 23, 2016 Author Share Posted December 23, 2016 Many thanks for all the replies, Sorry Herve, for not finding any reference to the controller issues, but i did spend several days looking through posts with regard to successful installs of Yosemite/El Capitan on this motherboard with a SSD drive, but did not come across anyone who mentioned trim not working. I also generally researched trim problems but again never found any mention of ICH7 controller limitations. My main aim is to try and get a stable install with trim working just to have a play with OSX. I have a number of older parts lying around, all socket 775/AMD so i was hoping to use them in my hackintosh build. If i use the setup without trim will it cause any issues? Due to long term health problems money is tight so i am unable to splash out on a more up to date setup. I do however have a Startech pexsata221 controller card which shows trim enabled when attached as a secondary drive but fails to boot when attached to the primary SSD drive. It seems like more research is on the horizon. Sata III would be nice to try but is not critical at this time. If i cannot get this card working can you suggest an alternative sata controller card or would this board solve the problem.? http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=2728#spI can pick one up for £ 25.00 though i do realise the board is only sata ii and is not really a step forward. Thanks again for all the replies and advice.
