[Michele Costantino Soccio <michelinux@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have solved the problem with an update to the Firmware.
I have followed the instructions at this page (as Samsung tools only works from Windows/DOS):
https://www.content-space.de/dokuwiki/blog/2012/updating_a_samsung_ssd_840_firmware_with_linux

I am happily running a 3.13 kernel version:
Linux Maggie 3.13.0-40-generic #69-Ubuntu SMP Thu Nov 13 17:53:56 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
