- How to wipe a drive clean of all data - SSD or HDD
Here I show you one way to fully delete all the partitions on your drive with this easy command. This way also makes the drive uninitialized as though you just purchased it and installed it. The data will still be there but would need a data recovery center to recover it.

Great Job. Nice Vid PK
I do this at least once or twice a week. Not the most secure way but eh it works. Good video as always PK
Thank you! you're a life saver!
Glad yo help
Question, could one still format their main drive from the command prompt?
There are ways you can ruin it so it is not bootable, but it needs the windows environment do it the way I showed.
You can install a windows 11 or 10 bootable media and delete it that way. But either way is not a secure erase. If that is what you are looking for.
i though it would clean junk on the drive not literlly deleting it :( what can i do to bring it back??
So as you can see the title says how to wipe a drive clean of all data and during the video I even give you a warning that it wipes all of the data and you still did it and thinking it would only clean a certain part of it?
I followed all these steps but the 180 MB data on a 1TB disk does not get deleted - and this 180MB held is not allowing this NVME M.2 to be recognized if i use it back on the computer for new OS install - any advise
Try it again
One of these, something like this? Please explain clearer. None of the linked show about 2.5 sata ssd
SATA m.2 is more rare. I only showed the docking stations, not the actual drives
You say Diskpart is doing the job?
I HEAVILY doubt this!
I really bet you would be able to recover the data that was stored on your drive.
I might be partially wrong about NVMe drives, since they use a technique called "trim", but in general I would prefer my way, if you want to sell your PC with your drive(s):
I do the stuff on a Linux (live) system and there is a different way for EACH of the three things: HDD, SATA SSD, NVMe SSD.
for HDDs you can use "shred"
for SATA SSDs you can use "hdparm"
for NVMe SSDs you can use "nvme format"
If you do have a system by Lenovo, HP and so on and you use the drive the device shipped with (no matter, whether you reinstalled Windows), they offer a secure erase function in their UEFI.
But I think, I should test the thing you showed here.
Yes I the data should still be there. The idea is that the average person would not know how to retrieve it nor would spend the hundreds or thousands of dollars to retrieve it. But yes, it is not a secure erase.
LOL... No Bleach Bit?
Lol
Now do it in Linux for me thanks
That is now a viable solution for the normal user.
