All of Kingston’s MLC based SSDNow drives are TRIM compatible. Some of our first generation SSDNow drives are not TRIM compatible. If you use one of our drives that have effective garbage collection (SVP100, SVP100E, SVP180, SNVP325), you will not see any sigificant perfomance decrease in non-TRIM supported configurations.
I had the first gen a while ago which is why the drive looked familiar and might have explained the relative cheapness and the reason fr my comments to make sure anyone looking would either prove me wrong or at least go looking before impulse buying
