Good plan to return it if you still can, I don't think it will work soon.
I had replied to the guy in the debian post months ago. We both saw
it and we both saw it with completely different kinds of disks.
I am pretty sure there is a FW issue on the board itself, I had 2-3
disks on it and when smart freaked out one all disks freaked out, and
reloading the driver did not fix it and I almost think I had to do
full power off to clear the condition which implies the bad state is
in the board itself not the os level.
