I understand traditional methods don’t work with modern SSD, anyone knows any good way to do it?

NSA requires the use of a industrial shredder that can grind the components into pieces less than 2mm.

If you can't do that, you should incinerate the drive at over 700 degrees.

As far as wiping goes, a 3 pass overwrite alternating 0s and 1s is good enough as long as it's done over the entire drive, not just the partition.

BCWipe is good enough for this
