Cross posted from the VSI OpenVMS forum so if you have an answer, just post where you are most comfortable. :D

As a hobbyist, looking to put standard commercial SSD (Samsung EVO, WD Red, etc) in my Integrity rx2660. I already have some in my AlphaServer DS10's as data disks (unbootable). Just wondering is trim is available to help extend the life of the SSD.

The rx2660's disk controller is a P600 if that makes any difference. I also have a P400 available if that is a better option.

I read some posts from back in 2019 where Rod Regier (RIP) asked the same thing and in typical C.O.V. fashion it ended up a firestorm of opinions about, well anything other that what Rod wanted to know about trim.

Thanks
