Enabling TRIM on 10.13 is the same as it always has been.

Is this better than using trimforce? I just did a clean install of 10.13.2 and my new nvme drive has trim enabled by default, but my SATA SSDs (previous 10.12.6 OS drive, and a windows 10 drive) now show trim is not enabled, though it was under 10.12.6... I want to do whichever is best, this kext patch, or the trim force command. Thanks!

TRIM is only for SSD. It spreads usage through all of the storage on the drive so it doesn't wear out parts earlier (SSD storage has a limited number of writes before a given cell won't change anymore; it's extremely high but does exist).
