Re: Buggy Intel SSD 520 Series SSD Firmware

said by trparky:

I know about that, but appears that that may indicate that a TRIM only happens when you delete files. What about an overwrite of a file?

Due to wear leveling you don't ever overwrite

overwriting nand is very slow and time consuming so instead it writes to a new location and marks the old for GC to clean up
