erase hardware-encrypted SSD

## Disclaimer I'm not robbing someone, didn't rob someone in the past and don't plan to do so anytime soon. ## Situation Imagine I own a Samsung 2.5" SSD (850, 860 or the like) which is encrypted. If it's a software encryption like Bitlocker, FileVault or VeraCrypt, I can simply reformat the disk and should be fine. But these Samsung SSDs also come with a AES-256Bit hardware encryption and I don't know the PW. **I'm not interested in the data that might be on the disk (or not).** ## Question How do I erase the hardware-encrypted disk without having the PW? My only goal is to repurpose the SSD, not getting access to the data itself.
