What is TRIM?
SSDs are faster than traditional hard disk drives, but they can't keep up their quick speed forever. In order to maintain an SSD, you need the TRIM command, a garbage collection utility that is built in to the background of your Operating System. Crest for Mac SSD is the only 3rd party SSD that supports TRIM for Mac straight from the box. No driver, software or TRIM Enabler is needed!
