hdparm on SSD, gives error SG_IO: bad/missing sense data, doesn't display correctly
I have SK hynix 512GB SSD, with Windows 10 installed on it.
I boot Ubuntu from an USB flash drive.
At first, when I typed the following in the Ubuntu terminal:
hdparm -I /dev/sda
I was getting the proper information as should, which would display
NOT enabled
locked
frozen
etc
but after trying to unfreeze my SSD by using the sleep command:
echo -n mem > /sys/power/state
to tell my laptop to go to sleep, I now get some malarkey instead when I try to do "hdparm" command, it looks like this now.
SSD seems to work, Ubuntu shows it correctly in the default "Disks" app, and using the command "lsblk" also shows the SSD correctly.
so how do I make sure hdparm can be used again correctly with my SSD?
I wanted to do secure erase of my SSD that's all, shred command is overkill as SSD has limited read/write cycles.
