@gimpsmart your e-mail is well written, but I don't believe it applies to the EXT0DB6Q for the 840 EVO.
We no longer receive the "failed to get NCQ Send/Recv Log Emask 0x1" errors with this level of firmware which implies that the log has been correctly implemented. Samsung may simply need to re-spin the firmware for your 850 Pro drive with the fix. That being said, running a large fstrim on a EXT0DB6Q drive did still show timeout similar to below " [164782.716079] ata2.00: failed command: WRITE FPDMA QUEUED [164782.716081] ata2.00: cmd 61/60:10:28:b6:c0/00:00:1e:00:00/40 tag 2 ncq 49152 out [164782.716081] res 40/00:00:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00/00 Emask 0x4 (timeout) " It is because of these timeout errors that we decided to pull the upstream commit to disable NCQ trim on samsung SSDs. Are there any users of the EXT0DB6Q firmware that are still get the "failed to get NCQ Send/Recv Log Emask 0x1" errors? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1338706 Title: Samsung SSD 840 failed to get NCQ Send/Recv Log Emask 0x1 failed to set xfermode (err_mask=0x40) on upstream kernels >= 3.12 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1338706/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
