Replacing my drives - Looking for an easy way to unassign the old drives and wipe them


Recommended Posts

I'm replacing my drives, once I move the data to my new drives (I have plenty of bays for the old and new drives) I'm looking for an easy way either with a docker, vm or plugin to wipe my old drives.

 

I was thinking I could run Parted Magic in a VM and pass the disks through by id using Unassigned Devices. Has anyone done this before?


My old drives are really old so at some point I may want to recycle them rather than hang on to them.
