Hi I have a Corsair Flash Voyager GTX USB3 memory stick which is advertised as supporting TRIM.
I assume there are several other manufacturers with similar devices My device is working well (ext4) and is very fast but does not appear to respond to the TRIM command even though hdparm suggests it should I have found the same problem referenced here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1336541 but following the kernel link I am not totally convinced things are happening upstream Should I bugzilla this against Fedora this or just wait?
