This script will enable TRIM support for 3rd Party SSDs on Mountain Lion and later. It will enable TRIM for ALL 3rd Party SSDs, so if you have two SSDs in your system, best be sure both support TRIM before running this. It is unclear if this patch also enables TRIM for rotational media, I'd have to look at the Darwin source to find that out.
