hello guys i am wondering what are some must have iso’s for a ventoy drive? and what size ventoy drive would you recomend (i am considering buying a 512gb, 1tb or 2tb tranced 220s nvme)

Back story: So i recently started my own “business” in computer support and i need a drive to put ventoy on (its currently on a 32gb micro sd card) so i can easily have memtest, ultimatebootcd and some linux distro’s/windows install media and i am wondering if there would be any reason not to go with the cheapest per gb drive(2tb) as i could then also use it for some nice snappy file transfers. I am also looking to compile a list of iso’s to put on it. As i mentioned before i already have a few things but you guys probably have more suggestions for iso’s to put on a drive for repair\troubleshooting.

Thanks in advance for your advice on drive size and ISO recommendations.

    DBAN is for HDDs and using it for an SSD is not really worth the effort. If the SSD manufacturer does not provide a wiping tool (Samsung does for the EVOs) and you need to make sure the data is wiped, you better crack it open like a clam shell and destroy the board inside. In my opinion you should never sell or give away a used SSD because of that.
