preparing Samsung SSD for resale

[champ222]

Hi all

I have sold a samsung 840 120gb and before dispatch i'd like to delete its contents.

There is nothing of sensitivity on there or value (other than win 8 install, therefore the license key) but otherwise no personal info or anything.

would a quick format be sufficient?

Thanks

yes but even better would be a secure erase using samsungs own magician tool

it deletes data and sets it to out of the factory state(like new)

Thanks
