Hi everybody,
Why did you post the question twice?
does anyone know how to securely format a btrfs-partition[1]? I have an unused SSD with a former root partition that I have to return and I want to make sure that all data is erased before giving it back.
Thank you in advance! Simon
[1] Without physically destroying the SSD obviously
Why not:
cat /dev/random > /dev/yourssdhoweveritskonnected after you get a error that its full,
This can be very slow. If you are interested, I have a tool to do it very fast with less random data. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from openSUSE 15.5 (Laicolasse))
