My SSD and windows 7 scores

Problem is, that tells you if windows is sending the commands, not whether they're being processed. AFAIK there is no way to determine 100% if TRIM is on and working.
Which is crap.

Precisely, Windows says TRIM is on for me, but i haven't flashed my firmware to the TRIM release yet...

I think Microsoft recalibrate their benchmark scores periodically to account for newer and faster kit hitting the market. It may be that there isn't actually any performance drop. For reference, my X25M also scores 7.4

Incidentally i just re ran the benchmark and my disk speed dropped from 6.9 to 5.9 for some reason, and windows also fails to detect i have 4 cores not 3 on my cpu (cpuz confirms theres 4)

Update - this: http://www.majorgeeks.com/download5931.html will help you. It will tell you if the OS see's the drive's TRIM feature (it's greyed out if it's not supported). This (as far as I can tell) is the only way to know if Windows is seeing TRIM support (and thus using it).

Just throwing a spanner in the works... though my 80GB X25-M G2 has the latest firmware yet I'm using the Intel MSM drivers which don't [apparently] pass TRIM commands and Crystal DiskInfo still shows TRIM in black.

spanner!
