just wanted to provide an update here.  so i had a system that needed a 
new root drive and figured that the price of this device was worth a 
shot.  i figured if it has issues it'd be a good opportunity to help 
find the root cause and fix them.  so anyway...i got the drive today and 
i am not seeing any issues with it so far. here's the device on my end:

$ sudo camcontrol devlist
<WDC WDS480G2G0B-00EPW0 UK450000>  at scbus0 target 0 lun 0 (ada0,pass0)
<AHCI SGPIO Enclosure 2.00 0001>   at scbus2 target 0 lun 0 (ses0,pass1)
$

i am running 12-STABLE, with an encrypted zfsroot device.  i've pumped 
about 10gigs through it so far restoring my homedir with no issues, and 
zfs scrub has run without any corrupted blocks detected.

so i don't think it's an issue with this specific m.2 device, perhaps 
there is something odd happening in your local env though that is 
causing this issue to crop up.
