Not sure if this is a bug or a feature.
I have installed El Capitan on a well established system. Was running Mavericks; reformatted SSD and clean installed El Capitan using latest Unibeast 6.1 and Multibeast 8.0
Everything seems to be working well so far Except: System Report - Hardware - Sata/SATA Express - diskname report shows TRIM Support: No

Multibeast release notes state:

....
- Removed Drivers -> Disk -> TRIM Enabler since it's no longer needed
....

What am I doing wrong? How can I enable TRIM please?
Thanks

All working since November 2012: ML; Mavericks; El Capitan
 
Hi guys
This is why this site is so good!
2 people replied, so many thanks to vntester and codf4ther.
I typed the 'sudo trimforce enable' command into a terminal and, after a reboot, TRIM is now enabled.
I did not upgrade to Yosemite (too flaky) so I was not aware of this command.

So a feature and not a bug!

Incidentally, many people have posted that, thanks to Apple not trying, yet, to kill off Hackintoshes, many of us have actually bought Apple products. Not just software either. My wife had an iMac G5 (we still use it) and was most PO'd when Apple dropped support for it. We have built two Hackintoshes and have been sufficiently impressed with Apple developments to buy a brand new iMac with Retina display. The machine is simply beautiful and works well.
Now here's the thing, her 2012 Hackintosh, which I am bringing up to date with El Cap boots miles faster than her new machine - thanks, I suspect, to the SSD. Our niece is to be the grateful recipient of the old Hack - another Apple convert in the making.

Thanks again guys for a great site, and keep up the good work. :clap:
 
To enable TRIM Support yo need to do the trimforce command in terminal just type
sudo trim force enable
[FONT=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]and thats it the system will reboot, now you can check the effect in system report[/FONT]
 
You can use Trimforce terminal command in terminal to enable Trim. sudo trimforce enable.
