Hey guys,
I'm trying to erase all data from my macbook pro 13' 2019. In Disk Utility the button for erasing is greyed out, It can't be done either with Disk Utility in System Preferences and neither after restarting and opening Disk Utility with Command+R. I've tried all hacks I've found (First Aid first, showing All Devices) without any luck. Is there any option to do that some other way?
Thank you :)
MacBook Pro Retina

Mount the Drive:
Boot into Recovery Mode (Hold Down: [Command + R] upon boot). Then, using Disk Utility, see if the Hard Drive is seen. If it is, then see if you need to click the “Mount’ button for it. Try rebooting once more. If of no success, then click unmount button, and then the mount button. Try rebooting once more.
