In the USB world, the relevant feature is called UAS/UASP (USB > Attached SCSI). I was about to mention this ... as Frank explained not all external drives are built equal. TRIM is necessary if you want the performance of the drive to remain high as it gets (re)filled up and not suffer from 'write amplification'. This functionality is provided by the onboard controller and has to be supported by the filesystem too. It used to be the case FAT and exFAT did not make use of TRIM, or at least they did not when used with MSWindows, but I think these days all(?) filesystems use it. --nextPart3615743.iIbC2pHGDl Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
