@Fredrico71 : In this case I recommend to secure erase the SSD by using an appropriate tool.

Thank you.

Resolved: I used the linux ISO from https://partedmagic.com/ to erase the drive and then create a partition. Very usefull and powerfull tool.

@Fernando Do you happen to know what’s the best driver for the Samsung PM9A1?

@superspartan
The choice of the “best” storage driver doesn’t depend on the HDD/SSD model, but on
a) the HardwareIDs of the Storage Controller and
b) the OS, which the user is running or want to install.
