Prior to Warners commit there was no NCQ TRIM support in FreeBSD, so 
while it was working with standard non-NCQ TRIM (and I can corroborate 
that as we use the 840's and 850's all over with ZFS with TRIM enabled) 
its possible that it could cause issues when NCQ TRIM comes into play.

 From what I read when this issue first came to light, I believe the 
actual issue was a Linux kernel bug not a FW bug in Samsung drives that 
caused the corruption. This is the thread which details said issue:
