If the password is forgotten, the usual solution is to factory reset the SSD, which will erase all data. Check the manufacturer's software or support page for the reset procedure.
@davidwarner344 There is no factory reset procedure that a user can do for the T1 portable SSD. If I remember correctly, Samsung tells you to send it to them.

@F4T4L3RR0R Sorry, but there is no way for you to unlock or reset the device. If you could, that wouldn't be real security.

My guess is that's why he gave it to you, because he couldn't use it because he couldn't remember the password.
