    Hi,

    I recently moved my VMS to SSD storage in order to speed things up a bit.

    When I examine the Hardware settings for my Win10 VM, the Hard Disk shows location as SATA 0:1. The previous storage was a Seagate SATA drive.

    My new storage is a Raid 0 config of 4 NVMe 3 drives. In order to use the TRIM option, should I change the Location to NVME3? (It is the only SSD interface displayed)

    You just need to check "Enable TRIM" under virtual HDD's advanced settings. It is not required to change virtual disk location.
