I use the Vector and trim it in log off mode... I have tried Bios, but not sure it works as the Ocz tool box trim feature takes a bit to say trim is OK

hmm.. I usually recheck with this http://files.thecybershadow.net/trimcheck/ just to be safe..

TRIMcheck will actually check and verify whether TRIM works or not. This program has no GUI, it runs in a command prompt window. You must copy it on the SSD that you are testing and run it twice, waiting at least 30 seconds to a minute between runs in order to ensure accurate results. When executed for the first time it will write on specific locations on the SSD. It will then delete the written data and exit. When you run it a second time a minute later, it will try to read the exact same locations.

I don't care about that at all. It's done automatically. It's 2013 you know.
I just use my PC and don't care.
