You cannot have TRIM on SSD's in RAID. HOWEVER if you have HDD's in Raid0 you can have TRIM on single SSD's on the same system (pass through).

Bang on im using a raided revo x2 120gig, no trim, plus raid array 3xhdd, using intel RST 10.6 and no sign of trim here.
as for the plan of wiping then re flashing once a week, totally unnecessary ive not had trim all year and mines not much slower(certainly not noticeable prob thanks to garbage collection on sandforces), i would backup tho as ive recked raid arrays updateing drivers? ie RST 9.5 - 10.5 was a nightmare, my array went awol after update and only reinstall fixed it, lol ie start again i deff backup now tho ive learned(only took 15 years too tut)
