Are you sure that 2 x 2 TB HDD in RAID 0 is 4TB available to the user???

Yes, RAID 0 doesn't reserve any space for redundancy. The usable space is a little less than 4 TB after the file system and 1024/1000 conversion.

I think you are wrong about last point regarding SSDs. As far as I know, thunderbolt protocol do pass S.M.A.R.T commands and statuses - and therefore - it should pass trim command!

 

[CRamseyer]

I've yet to have one turn in a "working" result/confirmation in the TRIM Check application.

NTFS, FAT32

Sounds like only Windows supported.

 

[CRamseyer]

MACs can use FAT32.
