SSD Trimming.

Hello Guys, anyone know a terminal command to run a trim on an ssd. (EXT4)
PS: This awesome KDE OS deserves a steam install via repo! Were is Amarok?

    Andrew Hi, you can run trim operations using the fstrim tool. You just need to be sure you mounted first the volume before trimming

    sudo fstrim -v /path/to/the/mounted/volumeor

    Also, you can use sudo fstrim -Av or sudo fstrim -av to trim all mounted volumes

      It surprises me that the fstrim.timer is not used like in other distro's. This ensures that once a week the trim command is executed automatically so you can't forget it, and also that you don't do it too often.
      A continuous trim is, according to many, not necessary and also not something you want cause it can damage the SSD.

      What I normally do is:

      sudo systemctl enable fstrim.timer
      sudo systemctl start fstrim.timer

      Plus, of course, remove the discard option in the /etc/fstab file for every partition located on an SSD.
