How to wipe SSD if it has OS?

[Michael_531]

Hello,

I am selling my computer to a guy from Craigslist to make way for my new PC build. However, I want to wipe the SSD but I don't know how. The SSD has my OS installed on it. Can I just right-click the C drive and say format?

No, you cant wipe it like that if OS is on it. You can use something like this: http://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/active_killdisk.html to BOOT from and wipe disk(s) clean.
