Have you run BlackMagic to see what it's doing ?
I have a mid 2009 15" Pro with 8Gb RAM and just ( two weeks) put a 500 Gb EVO 840 in it.
I "fixed" the drive while bare on a Win box.. Do you get 200+ write and 260+ read ?
If so you're fine I reckon. Samsung wouldn't have done the fix if there wasn't an issue. My firmware is now EXT0CB6Q. It was BB.
