Hi,

I've done a fresh Windows install on a PC that I am passing on to relatives, but want to make sure the SSD is completely wipes of my files.

The drive is a Crucial MX300, but the utility won't let me "sanitize" the drive.

Is there any way to securely erase all the free space from within Windows? I assume this will be enough to remove all traces of my files.

Thanks,

Su
