Is it safe to use the E100 as a boot drive for my desktop or notebook computer?
It is strongly recommended that this drive NOT be used as a single boot drive. These drives are designed to be used in a RAID configuration in a server environment. If you intend to use this drive as a single boot drive, you MUST disable the TRIM function otherwise drive instability and data loss is likely to occur. This problem will not occur if the drive is configured in a RAID. TRIM commands cannot be sent to the drive when SSDs are in a RAID configuration. We are working on a firmware update to resolve this problem.
In the meantime, if you are using it as a single boot drive, you can disable TRIM. To disable the TRIM command in Windows 7 and Server 2008, type the following and press enter in the Elevated command:
fsutil behavior set disabledeletenotify 1
In Linux, TRIM must be enabled manually. In Mac OS, TRIM is only supported with Apple branded drives.
