For SSDs, it's easier to ensure that the drive you're buying implements encryption at the controller level because then the secure erase option happens nearly instantaneously. Just look for AES-256 in the drive specs. It happens so quickly because all it does is overwrite the encryption key on the controller as opposed to waiting hours for the standard secure erase procedure to complete. At that point all the data is useless. |
