TRIM is an ATA command (Advanced Technology Attachment Command) that allows an OS to inform SSD about the blocks of data no longer in use. The SSD then deletes such blocks of data to make a way for newer blocks of data. TRIM is basically used for enhancing the performance and life span of the SSD.
Comparison of S.M.A.R.T. tools. This is an incomplete list of software that reads S.M.A.R.T. (Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology) data from hard drives. Also shows temperature of CPU, GPU, CPU core speed, Intel Turbo Boost status, CPU power consumption, system load and system fan speeds. Can control speed of GPU and system fans.
An Intel mSATA SSD Samsung M.2 NVMe SSD. A solid-state drive (SSD) is a type of solid-state storage device that uses integrated circuits to store data persistently. It is sometimes called semiconductor storage device, solid-state device, and solid-state disk. [1] [2] SSDs rely on non-volatile memory, typically NAND flash, to store data in ...

Opal Storage Specification. The Opal Storage Specification is a set of specifications for features of data storage devices (such as hard disk drives and solid state drives) that enhance their security. For example, it defines a way of encrypting the stored data so that an unauthorized person who gains possession of the device cannot see the data.
Zoned Storage is a storage technology set that can reduces write amplification and product cost. It divide the storage device to many zones (usually the block of flash memory), and allow operating system (OS) to write data sequently on zones. It requires the modification of OS, and it needs the device (such as SSD) to support this feature.
U.2 (pronounced 'u-dot-2' [1]), using the port SFF-8639, is a computer interface standard for connecting solid-state drives (SSDs) to a computer. It covers the physical connector, electrical characteristics, and communication protocols. It was developed for the enterprise market and designed to be used with new PCI Express drives along with SAS ...
