TRIM command

The TRIM command is a function used in solid-state drives (SSDs) to improve their performance and longevity. When you delete a file, the TRIM command informs the SSD that certain data blocks are no longer needed, allowing the drive to clean up and prepare those spaces for new data. This proactive management helps maintain fast read and write speeds, ensuring the SSD operates efficiently over time. Essentially, TRIM helps the drive stay organized, much like a maintenance service keeps a car running smoothly.
