I've got a "classic" SSD, the Crucial CT32GBFAB0, Garbage Collection Possible?

I have a Crucial CT32GBFAB0. I'm just wondering if there's any chance of garbage collection for it or if it's just not possible. I've only ever had TRIM drives so I don't even really know how that works.

Is there any option for me?

Interesting. I feel like a secure erase (all 0s) might help, but I'm not sure. There's no TRIM support, so I doubt it has garbage collection either.

I have secure erased it, just planning for installing into the HTPC

Yeah, that's probably as good as it's going to get.
