I'm trying to completely erase the Intel S3500 SSD's I got before I add them to my vSAN datastore (vSAN likes completely empty drives). I've tried by sg_format and hdparm secure erase and both throw errors at me.
Sg_format gives me the following output:
"format unit: Fixed format, current; Sense key: Illegal Request
Additional sense: Invalid field in cdb
Format command, illegal parameter
FORMAT failed"
hdparm just gives me "SECURITY_ERASE: Input/output error" when I try to do a secure erase.
Any ideas?
