Hi!,

What is the sata chipset?

What has NCQ with a scheduler to do?

NCQ is a sata feature. On my nVidia nForce 430 chipset, I have to disable it.

This means your disk support encryption, but not NCQ TRIM.

Using a Samsung 840 SSD? I stumbled upon some articles regarding that the other day.
Maybe this helps you further:

I am using a Samsung 850 Pro 512 GB.

I think this error means, that die DMA access to the read log (of the filesystem is not enabled).

Now it is impossble to monitor, when the last read access to this disk has happend.

This message means nothing, the DRM means drive support IEEE 1667 Storage SILO encryption.
The NCQ Send/Recv message means drive report NCQ Send/Recv, so kernel trying to read log page/mask, to determine which subcmds it supported, the most useful subcmds is NCQ TRIM. Kernel trying read log page use queued command and later unqueued, both failed. That means it has no NCQ TRIM feature.
