Erase NAS My Book Live

After transferring all my files to a new My Cloud to replace my My Book LIve, in addition to DELETEing my files on the My Book Live, I want to ERASE those files. I have not found a way to do this. Can anybody advise how to ERASE / overwrite the My Book Live before returning it to WD?
