Hi all,

 

I managed to lock my SSD (Kingston V300 60gb) whilst attempting to do a secure erase with Parted Magic. It now indicates "Not Frozen*" however there is an error after the attempting another secure erase indicating that the SSD failed to erase.

 

I've never changed the password and I do have the master password but am unsure of what to do next in order to unlock it.

 

I have attached some screen shots to provide visuals

 

Any form of assistance will be greatly appreciated. Please!
