Linux Lite 1.0.6 - Question about CRON trim weekly - T1125P - 07-06-2016
Hi all, I saw the directions on how to set up a "daily" cron TRIM. But how do set up a weekly? I have always used the discard entry with noatime, but I see it's not so good to use. I have tried LL 3.0 while it's awesome, my netbook seems a bit slower. I find LL 1.0.6 is the best fit for it. I Have tried so many distro's of Linux but 1.0.6 feels so awesome
Any help would be appreciated on the weekly trim Thanks all and awesome job on LL 3.0

I just found this: https://chmatse.github.io/SSDcronTRIM/
"Intelligent cron job script which automatically decides how often to trim one or more SSD partitions"
This should also be useful to some members here ^|^

I went ahead and followed the LL instructions on how to enable trim daily. I'm running LL 1.0.6 I have only 1 SSD in my netbook. 360GB Corsair Force GS and it shows trim does work on it, I used the fstrim command. Now I wanted to really test it by running a small script which I found here:

I'm at the part Download the script.
It runs but it keeps saying /dev/sdx: no such file or directory. Maybe I'm doing something wrong? :/

Hi,
do not use /sdx... x is just an example
You need to use the correct drive..You need to put the drive you have LL installed on.
for example, on 1 PC I have only have 1 drive, and that is /sda
on another multi boot, LL is on /sdc

Thanks so much you are right it's /dev/sda I ran the test and now it works great.
