TRIM/UNMAP and Dell Enterprise SSD Drives Support Certain operating systems support the TRIM function, which translates deleted files to the associated LBA (logical block address) on the storage device (SSD). For SATA, the command is referred to as TRIM, for SAS, the command is called UNMAP. The TRIM/UNMAP command notifies the drive that it no longer needs data in certain Logical Block Addresses (LBA) which then free up several NAND pages. Server management software issues 111
