So I moved my 128GB Crucial M4 from my laptop to my desktop. Before doing so I did a secure erase with Parted Magic, but when the option came to choose normal secure erase or enhanced secure erase, I chose enhanced secure erase as it was recommended by Parted Magic.
I've seen on a few forums it's recommended to not use enhanced secure erase however.
I have W7 installed now on the SSD and everything runs fine, boots up in about 10-15 secs after post.
Should I be concerned about the method of secure erase I used, or should it be fine?
I don't really want to have to re-install W7 again so soon
