What TRIM does is mark SSD cells for collection and reuse.  But you
could probably run DOS off an SSD for the life of the PC you used
without ever doing a TRIM operation, and never see any issues.  Lack
of TRIM support is *not* a problem.

Current SSD development aims to make TRIM unnecessary in any case.
