You really don't need to do any sort of Secure Erase for this, simply delete your existing partition within the WIndows setup dialog, and start over....

Secure Erase it. You may need to grab the manufacturers toolkit to do this.
Just deleting whats on there will cause it to reduce performance until Trim and/or Garbage Collect reset all the previously written to cells back to 0's.
