I'm pretty confident that you have bad hardware and ZFS is telling you so.  
It's either a memory issue (ECC RAM being used?), or a problem with your  
controller, cabling, or HDD. Things like this have happened to people and  
the problem was a faulty power supply or dirty power, too.

When ZFS tells you there are errors and checksum mismatches it's doing its  
best to PROTECT you from corrupted data and you need to start looking at  
every piece of hardware in your server that can cause this.
