Hi all,
I have 10 laptops with samsung ssd´s installed. I want to do a secure erase. I have tried the following
1. Checked wipe disk option in bios : Not available for dell m4700 series laptop even though i have upgraded the firmware
2. Tried to install ubuntu and issue hdparm command followed the below article
https://ata.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/ATA_Secure_Erase
The SSD is not recognized when i run this command
I wanted to try to remove the ssd and put in a ssd case and connect as a USB Storage and then try to wipe the disk via samsung software or anyother.
Please advise some alternative if anyone has tried to remove SSD and then erase them.
Appreciate your response.
