Quick format would have been the right option , probably bricked it when you stopped the FULL format.

Drop to an Administrative Command Prompt, and enter the following commands. Let's see if we can get that puppy running again.
Diskpart - hit enter
list disk - view list of disks in computer
Select disk (enter number of disk that corresponds to your 128Gb SSD) press enter
list disk - just to make sure the asterisk is beside the 128GB SSD
clean
create partition primary
select partition 1
active
format fs=(whatever you want FAT32, NTFS, etc) quick
exit
exit (yes that is exit twice)
