Following the directions in that guide has worked okay so far, but I can't seem to resolve this error: ~ hdparm enhanced security erase $ sudo hdparm --user-master m --security-set-pass NUL /dev/sda security_password="NUL" /dev/sda: Issuing SECURITY_SET_PASS command, password="NUL", user=master, mode=high SECURITY_SET_PASS: Input/output error I've searched around and tested things, as suggested here, but to no avail. How else can I deep-wipe an SSD, if this is not an option?

Here's what I do: 1. boot ubuntu (11.04, x86). booting from live CD. 2. run: hdparm -I /dev/sdb. Here's what I get:Security: Master password revision code = 65534 supported not enabled not locked frozen not expired: security count supported: enhanced erase 2min for SECURITY ERASE UNIT. 2min for ENHANCED SECURITY ERASE UNIT.3. put iMac to sleep and run hdparm again:Security: Master password revision code = 65534 supported not enabled not locked not frozen not expired: security count supported: enhanced erase 2min for SECURITY ERASE UNIT. 2min for ENHANCED SECURITY ERASE UNIT.And this is where the problems begin... 4.hdparm --user-master u --security-set-pass passwd /dev/sdb/dev/sdd:Issuing SECURITY_SET_PASS command, password="passwd", user=user, mode=highSECURITY_SET_PASS: input/output errorI tried --user-master m, secure erase with NULL password etc... Nothin works. I _always_ get input/output error regardles of the command... I'm using latest hdparm (9.37 compiled from sources) Any idea what is wrong? I don't really want to tear the iMac apart again to disconnect the drive...
