TRIM is a feature that allows the operating system to inform the SSD which blocks of data are no longer in use and can be wiped internally. This helps to maintain the SSD's performance and endurance by preventing unnecessary write operations and reducing write amplification12. Running the corresponding command to trim the SSD drives, such as fstrim or blkdiscard on Linux, can help to solve the issue of slow writes by freeing up space and optimizing the SSD's internal garbage collection34.
