    Don't know why it's in Chinese but the "TRIM" highlighted in black means it's activated

    Thank you very much, kind sir

    Check the crystaldisk folder - open diskinfo.ini and change the language to English (just type it in place of simplified chinese)

    Code:
    [Setting]
    DebugMode=0
    AutoRefresh=10
    StartupWaitTime=30
    Temperature=0
    ResidentMinimize=0
    Theme=default
    Language=English
    Height=610
    GraphHeight=480
    GraphWidth=640
    [USB]
    SAT=1
    IODATA=1
    Sunplus=1
    Logitec=1
    JMicron=1
    Cypress=1
    [GraphHideDisk]
    Disk0=0
    Disk1=0

    I'm trying the hack for the intel management tools but that doesn't seem to work (to recognize the drive) for some odd reason. Can't remember if this (002) has AHCI on i'll check..
