However, going over to SSD internally, I think it's probably best that I use an OS higher than El Capitan. I have so much CPU bandwidth that I don't need more more more and the latest MacOS, and the CPU bandwidth is barely taxed the way I write and track. It runs exceptionally well with DP 10.11.

I have a well running Mac Mini Late 2012 2.6 Ghz i7 with 16 GB of RAM and I am about to drop two 1 TB SSD's into it from Crucial (MX500 series SSD). I've been on here a long time and grateful for the host James and Cohosts who are solidly here to help when I need them as well as you various nerds out there haha.

To get the latest features and maintain the security, stability, compatibility, and performance of your Mac, it's important to keep your software up to date.
#Enable trim mac os x el capitan upgrade
Is my Mac up to date? If your Mac isn't compatible with the latest macOS, you might still be able to upgrade to an earlier macOS, such as macOS Catalina, Mojave, High Sierra, Sierra, or El Capitan.

Apple has made it easier than ever to update to the latest operating system, even if you are running an older operating system on your Mac. Even if you're still running OS X El Capitan, you can upgrade to macOS Mojave with just a click. If you still can't update to macOS Mojave, you may download the installer from an external source, like I did when I needed to update from Snow Leopard (10.8) to El Capitan (10.11). Then, you can manually download the installer through Apple Official Support or the Mac App Store.

That’s what enabling TRIM is for with non-Apple SSDs.Ī key idea is that the space is flagged as available when the deletion takes place which means TRIM must be running continuously to get full benefit and any such benefit is lost for deletions prior to TRIM being enabled.

TRIM is the function built into the OS that tells the SSD the deleted file’s space is erasable but it’s only on by default with Apple SSDs. Second, the HD and the OS both know about file deletion making the space free, but the SSD controller doesn’t, so when the good stuff is moved prior to erasure, the deleted stuff goes too. First, the minimum contiguous space that can be erased is often larger than what the file occupied so before erasure, all the still good stuff in that space has to be moved somewhere else first. When you delete a file from an SSD, the space needs to be erased first by the SSD controller. When you delete a file from a HD, the space it occupied can be written to immediately.
