"Finally, about TRIM. Do you need AHCI to get TRIM support? The straight up factual 100% accurate answer is NO, YOU DO NOT. TRIM is an actual ATA protocol command (see above, re: ATA-8 ACS-2), specifically DATA SET MANAGEMENT command 0x06. If you want to read about it, please see the ATA-8 ACS-2 working draft document, section 7 "Command Descriptions" subsection 10. Any device that speaks the ATA protocol -- such as SATA hard disks -- and supports 48-bit LBA addressing, can support the TRIM command. You can submit this command to the drive via a standard ATA CDB message and it will work. You DO NOT need AHCI to send this command. And of course there's a similar status/capability bit that defines if the device (disk) has TRIM capability or not."

It is not dependent on the host controller, and AHCI is not a requirement. TRIM is natively supported in Windows 7, as well as Linux since kernel 2.6.33. 原文網址, IDE, SATA, AHCI, SSDs and TRIM: all you need to know http://forum-en.msi.com/faq/article/ide-sata-and-ahci-all-you-need-to-know
