I am getting ready to install Win7 on my G1 Raid setup and was curious if I need to use any sort of tool to wipe the drive before a reload?
 
Formatting using the Windows 7 installer should be enough. I don't know if Intel has a wiper like tool, which is sort like a software TRIM, but if they do, you might want to run it a few times after you finished installing. It'll help keep your SSD up to top performance.

Yeah a wiper is what i was looking for. I can't seem to find anything on it. I just want to make sure I am at peak performance after my next reload. Sure wish Intel would have put TRIM on the G1. Oh well.
 
there's a wiper utility for Intel drives but it only works on Trim enabled drives (i.e. g2)
