--- Comment #4 from Theodore Tso <tytso@....edu> ---
BTW, I'm using a 512GB Samsung 840 PRO (2.5" SATA SSD) and an 240GB Intel 525
SSD (mSata) on my Lenovo T430s, and they both work like a charm.

Hmm... I wasn't able to get detailed specs on your SAMSUNG MZNTD256HAGL-00000,
but upon doing some further research, it appears to be a new-fangled M.2 PCIe
interface.  So it's not a mSATA nor a 2.5" SATA interface, but Something New.

So whether or not this is a Linux bug, or an implementation bug in this new
Samsung part (or a failure in the standardization of this new M.2 PCIe
interface), I can't say, but this looks like the most likely cause is a problem
with this new SSD or its new M.2 interface[1].
