Intel’s TRIM Support for RAID Coming to X79 Very S?= oon @ Hardware Canucks

news · August 21, 2012

To many it looked like Intel was ignoring enthusiasts with their latest RST

driver which supports the TRIM command over RAID setups on their Z, P, H

and Q chipsets. Conspicuous by its absence was X79 but after some digging,

Hardware Canucks has found out some additional information.

*Quote:* *Intel's Rapid Storage Technology (RST) **11.2 driver update was

rolled out to the public but the initial positive response was somewhat

tempered when enthusiasts realized their X79 systems werenÂ’t supported.

Only P67, Z68, Z77, H67, H77, Q67 and Q77 chipsets are currently listed as

certified, which tends to leave some IntelÂ’s highest paying clients

(enthusiasts and power users) out in the cold so to speak. Amidst the

outrage from understandably miffed enthusiasts, we reached out to Intel and

asked about their plans for X79 users. Their response should put some

customers at ease.*

We would appreciate it if you would post this in your News section.
