TRIM is a command that boosts the performance of SSDs.
In a SSD, an erase command does not delete the actual data written to a block.
So the TRIM command is used to delete the data contents of the block.
This allows immediate writing of new data to the same block on the SSD, keeping the highest level of performance of the SSD.
