Anyone using Samsung SM863/SM863a SSD from a long time ? Any thought?

Currenty, it cost about half an Intel DC S4600, but the Intel has a lower DWPD.
The real comparison should be made with Intel DC S3610 but this one is EOL, so is Samsung SM863 a good enterprise drive?

Any sudden failures and so on ? Intel SSDs are considered the most reliable SSDs
 
I see, but a test lab is not exactly a production use.
I'm looking for real production use in a DC. (something like: we use them from 5 years, not issues at all, or something similiar)

I doubt that someone use these drives for 5 years already (AFAIK they were announced in 2015...).
 
Not exactly your model, but our SAMSUNG MZ7WD960HMHP have 3,5y in a production server with ~20GB/day and still 99% health.
