You could use it to shred individual files, but to wipe a disk there are better ways. Generally you would use an ata command or wipe the encryption key if it’s encrypted.
Well, the issue is that it depends on how you set eraser. Just doing a delete on an SSD has the same issue with just doing a delete on an HDD at the OS level for the file recovery. But SSDs don’t really have the same need to overwrite a lot of times. So you could set Eraser to overwrite once with zeros or random values to successfully “shred” a single file.
Also, I’d add Bitwarden to password managers
Edit: And AFAIK Eraser should not be used on modern SSDs

But wasn’t Eraser supposed to wear out the SSD without noticeable improvements regards data recovery capability due to the way SSDs work?
