That's just my opinion though. I= 'm an old coot with a fear of the cutting edge. I'll be bringing up the rear= clutching onto my legacy OS, thank you very much. Don't push me. "Get off m= y lawn." I'm not totally alone in this sentiment, am I? I haven't had a single issue to report with online replacement and resilveri= ng of drives on 9.0-9.3 and I've probably swapped about 20 failed drives usi= ng ZFS across 9.x versions. Yes, I've had a second drive fail while resilver= ing a disk in a raidz2. I haven't used any hardware RAID controllers in conj= unction with FreeBSD for about 5 years now and at first glance it looked to m= e like the OP might have been. (Sorry I didn't look at it in detail, I'm on m= y phone and pastedumps hurt my eyes.) Sorry to spam the list, I realize this is not the place for either topic.
