    I keep hearing that the latest firmware lets you do a secure erase on the samsung/lenovo ssd...great, but how?

    I have a hard time believing the only way to make these things work is to program them to require a dos bootdisk. Ugh...now I have to attempt to make a flash card a dos boot disk, which never seems to work.

    Ah, got it, coolsville. I have ver 1.01 not 1.02, but it still managed to erase my drive
