@zer0unplanned @Nonya_Bidniss @n_dimension yes, unless you "trust" the manufacturer to provide a proper deletion tool, you should assume an #SSD to be 100% recoverable unless physically destroyed into shredded chiplets and mell mixed amoung identical models...

  • Personally, I'd not even trust "self-encrypting" drives that (either via #TGCopal ir vendor-specific commands) allow key deletion / new key generation.
    • So yeah, microwave & Blendtec Blender (or whatever approved drive #shredder your organization has) will be the way to go.

@[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] there are tools like `shred` that do the repeat overwrites with random data, 0s & 1s. - Just [iterate over your physical drives and you should be good](https://github.com/kkarhan/misc-scripts/blob/master/bash/wiper.sh) - That does work fine, and is kinda essential with *shitty hosters* [i.e. Hetzner] that tend to not even replace/delete the vHDD of their VPSes after customers cancel them.
