Kingston support intends to RMA the XS-2000 4 TB SSD with a variant with a 
newer firmware version, in case they have it available, while they work on 
a newer firmware version for the device variant the error happened on.

So it appears the device has a bug. I will keep you posted, once I either 
receive that other variant or a firmware upgrade for the existing one.

I am happy with Kingston support so far. It takes quite a while, but they 
are taking the issue for real instead of writing use Windows instead of 
Linux or something like that :) - like I read before in other occasions 
with hardware from other suppliers. Thanks!

Best,
