You can ignore these warnings. They typically occur under heavy
I/O loads. The buffer will still be synced (eventually).

UFS is probably the best choice for a 16G drive.
The SET_MULTI failures can probably be ignored. My guess is that the
SSD simply does not support the command.... not surprising if it is a
modern SATA drive.

Thank you for that, then i can ignore the SET_MULTI failures :D, Ok then
i made a good choice of choosing UFS instead of Hammer beacuse my disk
would run out of space pretty fast when hammer is pruning and cleaning
up every night right?
By the way do you know why i got these messages about vfsync messages
about dirty buffer?
