    How do I clean up my SSD without Windows 7 TRIM?

    I recently installed a Kingston SSDNow V+100 96GB 2.5" Internal Solid State Drive (SSD) because my old hard disk died. After doing some research I see that Windows Vista does not support the TRIM feature that Windows 7 does. The only Software that came with the SSD was an imaging program.

    I know I can image my desktop to another HD and then re-image it back on to the SSD which supposedly accomplishes the same thing that TRIM would be doing.

    I'm wondering if anyone knows about any Vista supported software that acts the same as TRIM so I don't have to keep re-imaging my computer over time?

    Thanks in advance!

    That article is really good. It promotes the imaging that I have been doing already, however I'm still curious if there is anything out there like OCZ Vertex's "garbage collecting" firmware for other SSDs?

    I have no idea because I don't use a SSD. Sorry.
