Best method to wipe an ssd drive?
Any tips? I've used secure erase in parted magic (the option for enhanced secure erase was blanked out) but then read somewhere that there is no secure way to wipe an ssd? Planning to reinstall and then sell the machine on. It's only a small 80gb drive and not new to me or I'd swap it for something but the machine would be too slow without it.
I am also confused. Secure erase says it writes 0s to the drive. Standard wiping writes 0s to the drive! I thought secure erase was something other than wiping 0s to the drive!
