You could also use DBAN to perform the erasure from outside the operating system.

DBAN was acquired. I believe ShredOS (github.com/PartialVolume/shredos.x86_64) is its spiritual successor.

Oh, thanks for pointing that out. It's been a while since I needed to erase a disk so I didn't realize DBAN isn't really a thing anymore.

Yeah, I was pretty sad to see if when I needed to wipe a disk recently for the first time in like 15 years.
