What do you do with damaged drives?
(lemmy.sdf.org)
My old laptop died so I took the SSD from it in hope to use it as external drive. I wanted to just overwrite it with dd for security but I decided to go with f3 as that would also give me the opportunity to test the drive. Sadly, bad results came back

Yeah, barely used. Just the LBAs written/read doesn't seem to make sense.
Any better ideas than paperweight?
I have tested it when it was new, it had no errors.
From HDDs you at least had quality magnets and a bldc motor. SSDs go straight to electro trash.
