Just a side note on "confidential data":
Shred and/or srm may be ineffective on SSDs, so beware of a false sense of security in case the aging HDD has been replaced.

@richtea,
Correct, it depends on many factors: 1. Does the SSD support "Secure Erase" not all SSD controllers enable it 2. srm/secure erase do random overwrites(35?), so it may still be possible, with time & tools to recover files. 3. Best general user option is to use gparted and completely erase, and zero out free space. Like always, it's a risk assessment...
