FolderLock would have been the best choice. Unfortunately, it's not free:

Good thing there are some free alternatives that you can use for the same purpose:

They can be used to lock USB external hard drive and USB flash drives too.
Just a reminder, NEVER EVER lose your password to those lockers. If you do, there's no way of getting your data back.
