I guess i could raid a performance pro and a vertex 4 together I dont have any other non-sandforce drives right now. I can tell you that it will work. I will do it in a couple days.

VOILA - Proven beyond the reasonable doubt it is :clap: , I'm so glad I started this tread to prove it , and Darn it proven it is :D , and makes me so happy that a lot of people including myself did a lot of testing and Bios moding to prove this , Thank you guys for all the input ( Fernando , Andres Sergio , Computurd , BTester, and myself ) testing , Bios moding , help , etc ... It was an uphill battle we ran to prove it. Im happy :) , now let's share this information with everyone !
I like the conclusion on that article :D :
Conclusion:
RAID 0 TRIM has indeed arrived. It won’t be long before we start seeing board manufacturers serving up 11.5.0.1582 or higher OROMs with their BIOS’s. When they do you can be confident that whether you are running Windows 7 or 8 along with the correct chipset/s and IRST driver your RAID 0 array will have functioning TRIM. Intel has delivered on their promise to give us what we’ve all been waiting for RAID 0 TRIM. As of today there is NOTHING a single drive can do that a RAID 0 Array cannot do better. This day has been a long time coming and brings with it forth coming satisfaction for thousands of INTEL RAID 0 users. Awesome job INTEL, simply awesome!
We decided to test this specifically because of this particular thread. You are exactly right thanks to your guys hard work that article was possible so thank you and Fernando , Andres Sergio , Computurd , BTester and also to stasio for providing the BIOS. Spread the gospel guys!Quote:

It's awesome news ofc...but I gotta reserve my elation until it's 100% verified working with the Z68 chipset...and I know you have one of those handy.
Now get back to work! :hehe: Actually atm I'm only running 2 x V2s in raid...have one lent to a friend (SSD virgin) and the wifey has the other one...looks like it's repo time! :yepp:
GREAT !!! i like the conclusion very much :)Quote:

Will have to test my P55 board!
Tested on my Asrock Z68 Pro 3 with modded bios 2.10, latest OROM posted here and current drivers.
Confirmed Trim works.
Windows 7 X64 SP1 with 2x Crucial M4 128's in Raid 0
YESSS!!! That's music to my ears...sweet music.Quote:

btw...Does anyone know if it works with the P67 chipset as well?
Who confirmed, that TRIM works within your RAID0? If you confirmed it yourself, how did you test it?Quote:

I'm going to test Z68 in a couple days just got the bios I needed
I'll be updating the BIOS on my P67-UD4-B3 with a modded BIOS from here also in a few days/tise weekend with Win 7 and see how it goes.
Thanks for all your hard work guys!
I really doubt, that Intel chipsets of the 6-series will get benefit of the "Trim in RAID0" feature with the currently available Intel RST drivers and Intel RAID ROMs.Quote:

Ok, I can also post the bios I modded at anyones own risk to try if they have a Asrock Z68 Pro 3.Quote:

I'm Sorry Fernando i forgot that u tried and didnt work and was only Z77 :(Quote:

yeah, i was told that certain drivers will allow passthrough to individual raid members, but that doesn't mean the trim command is executed. i love my x79...darn...
