You can do it easily using disk management in windows:

1. Why not DBAN?

2. Just format it. That won't get rid of 'everything' but everything enough to use it.

3. Disk Management. Delete ALL partitions, format.

What partitions are on it?

Hi, you should be able to remove the SSD Drive from the old PC and install into your new one.

It will need a sata power cable along with the sata cable with a spare socket on your motherboard.

You can format / partition it from within Windows Disk Management.

The diskpart/clean command works quick and easy.

That's what I use before I re-deploy a SSD in a new build.
