this is not silent corruption but normal corruption.
i recommend setting for SATA drives
kern.cam.ada.write_cache=0

which thanks to NCQ does not produce any noticable slowdown but allows UFS 
to work really well with softupdates. With that setting when UFS gets 
information that data was writted it is actually writted.

- what i think is real use of snapshot.
