hi
i use mosly image for windows to create images , and image for linux to restore them because it's blazing fast

in past i have used many program , but terabyte for me it's the best

i have seen [others offer] trim the ssd before restore an image , but is there a sense to do it? is it worth to do it?

has terabyte to implement such feature?

about trim before restoring an image ->"it cannot trim sectors that were in use by the previous, now overwritten, filesystem. Without the pre-restore trim, these sectors would erroneously remain allocated."
thanks

The option has existed for some time (several years, I think). It is called "Unmap/Trim Target Area", not enabled by default. I suppose it would be if it was really necessary.
