    I been doing some reading, and TRIM does not work for SSDs on certain mobos, it does work on others from what I understand. However, from my reading it sounds like if I rebuild the array using ACHI rather then RAID, this will enable TRIM. Can any one confirm this?

    Also, with out TRIM is there any other way to clean up the drive besides wiping the drive clean with a utility like HDDErase?

    You have to use AHCI on the drive, and use Windows drivers (don't install vendor drivers such as intel)

    Not sure about manual disk cleaning on SSD
