please read the problem again - Trim IS WORKING on the main SSD, it is NOT WORKING on the second SSD in the media bay. so the fsutil check is 0. my question is how to get trim to work on the second SSD.
thanks

yes, Windows and my trim check software confirm that it is working on the main SSD. and after just checking, the second SSD (Sandisk U110) supports trim. the trim check software has confirmed that trim is not working on the second SSD. and if you didn't know, on this dell laptop the devices in the media bay are on a USB hub, if that makes any difference.

I had problem with TRIM on second SSD.
All you need to do is to set your second SSD as ACTIVE.

Go to (CONTROL PANEL / ADMINISTRATIVE TOOLS / Computer Management /)
In (Computer Management) click on (DISK MANAGEMENT)
Find your second SSD
Right click on it and (MAKE IT ACTIVE)
Reboot windows
TEST with (trimcheck-0.7)

TRIM should work. It worked for me. I have Primary SSD OCZ and secondary KingFast

Cheers :)
