Just reinstall win 10  after store mi was installed could not optimize or use trim on my boot ssd.

Did you have it configured as Virtual SSD? Store Mi still allows trim and optimization.

I personally can't be bothered with any of these apps. Both, Intel and AMD have them and they are all rubbish. Intel's RST creates some sort of RAID array that's incredibly fragile and brings bunch of issues with it and StoreMI isn't really any different. PrimoCache works way better, isn't fragile setup and is a lot more flexible. It isn't free, but is very cheap and has a lifetime license. Assuming you want to create accelerated HDD through SSD caching. Or is your goal something else?

that's what im trying to do right now boost the hdd with the nvme and I can't optimize my boot sandisk ssd when I install the storemi  half baked software lol?

I suggest you try PrimoCache instead. The SSD cache drive behaves like any other when used, which means TRIM also works and there is no weird fiddling with the drivers in Device Manager like in this case. It has 30 days trial so you can thoroughly check it out and then it costs like $30. I was using Intel's caching thing, but it was terrible and in event of array failure, accessing data becomes an issue iirc. With PrimoCache, if SSD dies, it just falls back to HDD only. You just remove the drive and system will run from HDD only from there on. Where with all other solutions, things get very complicated. I think even Linus made a video on StoreMI not long ago...
