[SOLVED]SSD 850 pro memory cell clearing

Hello,

I am trying to clear the memory cell from my ssd  Samsung 850 pro via the archlinux image.  Unfortunately, it keeps being frozen when executing

hdparm -I

. I enabled hotplug from my motherboard, and I also unplugged and replugged my ssd.

Here is the output of hdparm:

 Security:
        Master password revision = 65534
             supported
         not enabled
         not locked
             frozen
         not expired: security count
             supported enhanced erase
         2min for SECURITY ERASE UNIT. 2min for ENHANCED SECURITY ERASE UNIT.

Thank you very much in advance

Use blkdiscard(8) instead.
