Shredding SSD message
Posted: 16 Oct 2020 23:48
I just got a new computer and have transferred Xplorer2 4.4.0.1 x64 to it. When I shred a file I get a warning message saying:
Shredding files on SSD media doesn't make sense; it is ineffective and reduces the write life of your drive - continue shredding anyway?
The problem is that the new PC doesn't have an SSD, just 2 hard drives. Is this message telling me there is a wrong setting in my UEFI BIOS? My old computer never got this message, but it wasn't UEFI.
