crap, instead of saying "From what I read shipping", I meant to say "From what I read
skipping"
You should do a search, I did when I replaced a HDD with a SDD on my main system running Slackware
I saw somewhere that w/LUKS, all people could tell on a SDD where the file is, but that file will be encrypted. That is using LUKs and trim. Plus if you do
not trim, then security increases. FWIW, I trim and use LUKs because I doubt the NSA even cares about me. My main concern is theft, and what I do is good enough for that.
But the articles about SDDs and LUKS and trim are very confusing and there are many conflicting statements. So I chose what I think was the best for me, no dd and use trim.
But using /dev/zero is the same as not doing it at all.
For HDDs using /dev/urandom will help a lot with security. For SDDs I do not know.
