+<h2>Periodic fstrim on SSD drives</h2>
+ <h3>05-11-2023</h3>
+<p>
+The util-linux package provides fstrim.service and fstrim.timer systemd unit files.
+</p><p>
+Enabling the timer will activate the service weekly. The service executes fstrim(8) on all mounted filesystems on devices that support the discard operation.
+</p><p>
+The timer relies on the timestamp of /var/lib/systemd/timers/stamp-fstrim.timer (which it will create upon first invocation) to know whether a week has elapsed since it last ran.
+</p><p>
+Therefore there is no need to worry about too frequent invocations, in an anacron-like fashion. systemctl enable fstrim.timer
+</p><p>
+To query the units activity and status, see journalctl.
+</p><p>
+To change the periodicity of the timer or the command run, edit the provided unit files.
