I wanna know how to speed up or format old SSD's.
Is there a program or a guide you can recommend? Windows or Linux.

Vopt is an excellent defrag/trimmer/cleaner for Windows, now made freely available by the author.

spinrite from grc.com works on SSDs. It can speed them up, from what Steve Gibson says. I don't have a way to measure my SSD speed, so I can't provide evidence.
