I followed the steps in the help manual to set trim on SSD.Did follow them exactly.
Steps i did
1. sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab_bak-notrim
2. sudo leafpad /etc/fstab
3. added noatime, saved file and updated grub
4. sudo leafpad /etc/rc.local .... the rc.local file was empty when it opened with leafpad
4a. added the info from the yellow box in help manual and made it match my setup
5. sudo mv -v /etc/cron.weekly/fstrim /fstrim...outcome was mv: cannot stat '/etc/cron.weekly/fstrim': No such file or directory
This is how fstab file looks after adding noatime,

This is how fstab file looks after adding noatime,
Code:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid' to print the universally unique identifier for a
# device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name devices
# that works even if disks are added and removed. See fstab(5).
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
# / was on /dev/sda1 during installation
UUID=f41a07f7-132f-4329-8c59-1c2688f71407 / ext4 noatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1
# /home was on /dev/sda5 during installation

Life on earth is expensive but it does include a free trip around the sun.
