Samsung has a hardware testing lab where all new storage products (SSDs/memory cards) are rigorously put to (automated) tests through a ridiculous number of reads, writes and power scenarios. The numbers are then averaged out and dialed down a bit to provide some buffer and finally advertised on the models. I'm not surprised that they maintain data integrity. They also own their entire stack (software and hardware) so there is less scope for a untested OEM bug to slip through.
