Thanks. But sad that this list is needed.

I don’t think there’s anything between.

I did once. Well, more along the lines of “what did i buy this thing for, can use the HDD as is”. The HDD had additional contact points at the bottom. Don’t remember if they worked as is and what i did with them.

“buy”

Have you tried secure-erasing a disk?

Once /dev/urandom is enough. Who cares if a state actor could theoretically recover your media library in an expensive lab.

There are some fancy ones with SSD-features like wear leveling, though i don’t know which.

But why not a NVME USB enclosure?

Thumbdrive as main disk does work, but once i trashed a SD-card-as-home with compiling something, i gave up on the idea.
