Ssd is crucial P5 plus.
Using Crucial official software.
The driver its talking about is installed, i reinstalled it
The criteria below i have met by: making the drive 'offline' state
Formatted the drive with disk partitioner and has no mounted partitions
Has no encryption
Not sure what system is in AHCI mode means, but under device manager there is an AHCI device listed
Crucial P5 Plus support things like secure erase so last criteria should be met too.

Im also running windows 10 off a USB as 'windows to go' dont know if this affects it

Its not, it implements secure erase which is a hardware level command that flushes all the data from the cells, it takes like 10 seconds

Wait hold on

the controller chip on that series of drives may not support the function. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
