Thanks for this informative answer. Then it would make sense that it took only 1 second, then again, I have a modern Asus motherboard (AM5) with a Western Digital NVMe drive, and that drive isn't listed as Secure Erase compatible on Asus motherboard. I will download the WD dashboard and do it that way, I didn't know it existed before I posted this question.
I wouldn't trust any computer part from those places.
