    • Drives without ATA Secure Erase will need to be erased externally. Select External and choose Nwipe. Run the DoD Short command (3 wipes+drive blanking).

    • If your drive has a buggy ATA Secure Erase implementation, choose External and erase the drive with Nwipe. SSDs should only be erased with the Secure Erase command.

    • For NVMe SSDs, the best option is to use NVMe Secure Erase.
