Depending on your SSD it might need special erasing software from the manufacturer before formatting.
My Vertex needs to be erased with a program called "sanitary erase" before I create a new partition or else the alignment is off and writing speeds get messed up down the line.
I don't format unless something is broken. I clone my SSD every month. If it fucks up I work off the clone.
