The samsung has no problem with other chips it is just the Aladdin
Well why are you bumping the post if you know its the chip then fit a different chip altogether.
There is no problem with Aladdin 4032 chips and the Samsung drives as already stated. I have fitted loads to boxes with the Samsung drives (all types) and they work fine.
The answer is as stated change the chip to a DuoX 2 or whatever you like best
