Hello Rob,

2 - When I get there next I don't want to sit around and wait for disk initialization. I want to unplug, unrack and go.
In that case, I'd unrack, unplug and go, and afterwards connect the flash disks in my "main location" to a SAS HBA in a Linux box, and run a blkdiscard command over all of them. This does not stress the SSDs flash memory like dumb overwriting does. I deem this "safe enough" and both cases might leave data behind which can be recovered by tampering with the flash mem controller in the SSDs. YMMV.
:wq! PoC
