So, I'm finally getting around to building a RAIDZ2 array with 8 drives. 5 WD20EADS and 3 Hitachi 72K drives. Got the array built.. but I'm getting hard errors listed on the drives as soon as I start writing to them. One or two I could believe, but I'm talking about pretty much all of them. On top of that, the system won't pull any SMART temperature for these devices. I thought maybe it was the the SAS3081E-R hba card I'm using, so I moved all of them to the onboard 1068e controller (which has the 4 1TB drives) and the M1015 card that has my 4 750GB drives, with the same issues.
Anytime I start transferring data to the drives, I can watch the hard errors count on these drives go up. Being ZFS, I wouldn't think that the problem would be TLER, and since these are mixed drives (which I've been told is okay to do with ZFS), I'm not sure what exactly to check.
