When I sell back my drives, I usually securely erase them so the data is impossible/hard to recover.
But I'm talking mostly about disk drives.
Regarding SSDs (in this case M.2 NVMe SSDs) I'm still not sure if they have use for secure erasing given that they use a different technology than disk drives. I read some stuff and the opposite on the Internet.
(Also it is an annoying operation for because I don't have the hardware to easily swap M.2 drives as I can do for other drives, that's why I'm wondering about this. I'd need to open computer, remove GPU, swap M.2, place back GPU ... multiple times...)
