SSD with a HDD installed not being trimmed automatically, why?
I apologize if this thread appears a bit odd. I reconstructed this after deciding I shouldn't continue in another thread that is somewhat unrelated. That thread was located here;
Disk Optimization Turns Off...
Recently, I've noticed that my SSD is not getting trimmed on the same schedule as my HDD is defragged. I have my OS with a small reserved section for future use on an SSD and data on a HDD with the defrag schedule set to weekly.
The HDD (D: Data & F: old Windows) and the reserved section on the SSD (L: Linux) appear to get defragged or trimmed on a weekly schedule as configured although they appear somewhat staggered.
I have seen the same thing on my SSD. The small data section got trimmed on a weekly schedule same as the HDD, however; the OS section of the SSD did not get trimmed. It was necessary to run trim manually.
I am curious dalchina, on your SSD with partitions, was the area without the OS trimmed on the weekly schedule, similar to the HDD?
It appears that the OS section on an SSD is not being trimmed on schedule. Odd!
The mystery that I'm curious about is simply that it would appear that C: on an SSD gets trimmed on schedule when there's only the single drive installed. When more than one drive is installed, C: on the SSD does NOT get trimmed without manually running the trim action.
I have no great concerns, only curiosity. So far this seems to be happening on both 1809 & 1903. Has anyone else experienced this feature or anything different with trim behaviour?
