Sandisk support says that its 480GB SSDs have a block size of 8KB instead of
the usual 4KB. Thus in order to use that SSD we would have to format with a
block size of 8KB.
Do you have one of these devices?  I'd be a little surprised if it's really not
formattable with 4k blocks.  If you have the device, this might be interesting:

# blockdev --getss --getpbsz --getiomin --getioopt --getbsz /dev/sdX
