Do you recommend LUKS encryption on a SSD (TRIM support)?

0
0

I have a laptop (Dell Inspiron 11z) and and SSD (Samsung 128GB) on order. On my current laptop, I have a spinning HDD and use LVM and LUKS encryption.

I would like to use LUKS on the SSD but from doing a bit of research I am not sure if this is desirable/possible. It seems that LUKS (possibly???) may prevent TRIM from working.

I can't find any concrete info on this and lots of the info on SSDs such as alignment etc seems to be out of date.

Will TRIM work with LUKS? Because a laptop may be prone to theft, I like to have my data properly encrypted so this is important to me
