Intel provides fw update for their original drives, but you can't expect the same with Samsung or some other vendors since they don't even sell most of their enterprise series on retail channel. OEM firmwares are built on original fw with additional features and certifications, and the drives hardware are the same as retail ones, so there shouldn't be a problem, it all comes to the support for the firmware and the OS you use.
For HPE PM1725a, there is a HPS1 fw(with subversion B/C) which adds support for vmware7.0, SLES 15 SP1 and includes a fix:"Fix Increase the host PCIe completion time larger than default 50mS".
