Was this drive locked by user or with default password by laptop?

Other drive works ok in laptop, so looks like it is locked by user password.

I talk with client - maybe he can wait.

Not sure but Toshiba likes rebrand others MCUs. This one is probably samsumg 830 or JMF602 . Need to research this more deeply . So, if customer need data from ssd, this, at least, gives a chance .

Yes, you have right, Toshiba rebrand MCU - I see only from Sandforce (many many cases, usually SSD from Macbooks are Sandofrce). And probably my case is like that.

On SandForce_Toshiba MCU is clearly written : SandForce . And it is THNSNS models . I doubt about your THNSNF. Better check that.

DR-Kiev you have right. This case has Marvell controller. Unfortunately still no solution.

Did you try to use PC3K Marvell VanGogh utility? Just wondering if toshiba uses same firmware.. I think it doesnt, but who knows..
