I am giving away a shitty 128GB SSD, which was used with LUKS 2 for most of it’s lifetime. As far as I know, it’s good practice to secure-erase it, but I’m too lazy to reinstall the OS on it (I already did it once). Is it really needed?

    I think one TRIM cycle should make any data unrecoverable by all but the most determined. Feel free to correct me if i’m wrong though.
