    Im in the process of upgrading some lappys with small ssds to larger ones but what is the best method of wiping data off them?
    None of them are encrypted

    Thanks

    PartedMagic. The SSD wipe on there is my chosen tool.

    This. There is literally nothing else to suggest. Is there still a free version of Parted Magic though?

    You can still grab an older version, then use something like this to create bootable media.

    As said, PartedMagic is the go to on this one. Unfortunately, the last free version was still prior to displayport compatibility on Intel IGP... just something to bear in mind!
