Whats next?
I have found that smartctl(8) version 7.2 has trouble decoding some of
the statistics for my Intel SSD 520 Series drives (Debian Stable), while
smartctl(8) version 7.3 does a better job (FreeBSD-12.3-RELEASE-amd64).
So, perhaps you are seeing bad information from smartctl(8) version 7.2.
Debian backports does not seem to offer smartmontools 7.3.
Debian Testing and Unstable have smartmontools 7.3.
Alternatively, Samsung does make software tools for their storage
products. Unfortunately, I believe the tools are Windows applications;
so, they require a Windows installation.
AIUI you have a HBA/RAID card in that computer. I suspect that you also
have USB devices and/or other connected hardware. What happens if you
disconnect everything? If the problem goes away, do a search and find
the problem hardware.
