> > > > Confirmed, the SanDisk Ultra microSD does not support TRIM using the microSD slot in both Raspberry Pi 3 and 4. Instead of building an image from scratch, I downloaded a FreeBSD 14.0 image and created a new partition (8GB in size) with UFS/FFS with TRIM enabled and mount it. The partition is /dev/mmcsd0s3. There's no delete activity observed with "gstat -d" when I deleted some files in it. > > > You do not show the console output for the mount of > /dev/mmcsd0s3 on /mnt.
