Grant, thanks for the heads up.
Couple of points.
The SSD is a OWC 6G (updated firmware) 480 GB with 370 GB available.
Enable TRIM and Garbage Collection would make sense if the drive would be near full.
On the system info, TRIM is not supported.
Prior to installing the SSD I used it on the optical bay on my iMac without issues.
I use it as a backup boot drive, cloned with CCC of my OWC Mercury Accelsior_E2 PCI Express SSD.
I installed a Saphire 7950 utilizing both internal power cables.
Initially I presumed the issue was not enough electrical power from the optical bay SATA cables.
I unplugged the superdrive hoping more power to the secondary SATA cable, but no luck.
The optical SATA cables look fine as I have not have any issues with the superdirive itself.
