Hi everybody and thanks for the kind replies.
My thoughts are not driven by particular requirements in this specific moment, but I used that function in some occasion, and I'm just wondering how to reproduce that without the aid of special tools — and for the sake of pure knowledge of course.
Yes, the "wipe" is supposed to happen almost instantly.
Thank you

Do you have a PC-3000 with you and that PC-3000 does have that "function" that does erase the SSD instantly and fills and sectors with zeros ?
If so i'm interested in figuring out what command does the PC-3000 use to do this.
Question, is the command "universal" for all SSDs or is the command specific (inside a brand specific TOOL that will work for some SSDs only) ?
If the tool/command is "universal" and if you can use the same function on many diferent SSDs plug a Seagate drive there when the tool is already opened, go to terminal, enable echo, send the command to the seagate HDD and check what command does the drive show on terminal .... This will tell you what ATA command is the pc-3000 system using to erase those drives ... When you do please do share the command with us as well.
