Latest USB3 Memory Sticks and TRIM

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi
I have a Corsair Flash Voyager GTX USB3 memory stick which is
advertised as supporting TRIM.

I assume there are several other manufacturers with similar devices

My device is working well (ext4) and is very fast but does not appear to
respond to the TRIM command even though hdparm suggests it should

I have found the same problem referenced here
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1336541
but following the kernel link I am not totally convinced things
are happening upstream

Should I bugzilla this against Fedora this or just wait?

John
