When the 11.5.0.1109 RST driver first came out they indicated that TRIM was not enabled with this driver but will be enabled in the next 11.5.x driver.
The next 11.5.x driver was just released and it is driver version 11.5.0.1149
Alot of people are wondering if this driver in fact does pass the TRIM command while using a RAID 0 array as noted in the previous release.
Well It does !, But it seems its only for Windows 8 since this driver makes the device a SCSI device and Win7 can not pass the TRIM command with a SCSI device but Win8 can.
I was looking inside the 11.5.0.1149 RST GUI Help button Icon and found this below :)

FYI: It is recommended to use RAID OROM 11.5.0.1347 with this driver

    You maybe right. Intel had a confusing wording in there before, can't see them making the same mistake again so soon. Good find bud.

    Where do we find the RAID OROM number version to see if I have the 11.5.0.1347 version?

    It appears this may only apply to W8 at the moment.

    Update: The 11.5.0.1149 driver is for Windows 8 since this driver makes the device a SCSI device and Win7 can not pass the TRIM command with a SCSI device but Win8 can.
