SSD failure due to "SecureErase" while connected with USB

I tried to use "SecureErase" tool in MSI bios for my OEM samsung ssd attached via sata-usb bridge, and now it's totally bricked.

Windows disk manager doesn't show it and the window is freezing.
I also tried "Get-PhysicalDisk" command in PS but it also freezes the system.

What should I try to fix my drive? Maybe some utilities?

Did it already have problems? Why did you attempt Secure Erase?

No problems before. I just always use this tool to erase drives
