Thanks for the suggestion, I'll try that next time I get access to the system.

The PC was working well on Windows, but not with those disks.  One of the 2 
SATA disks has been part of a RAID-Z array on another system for some time and 
the other is a new SATA disk to replace it.

The situation is that I have a server with 5*4TB disks in a RAID-Z array and I 
need to replace it with 5*6TB disks.  As I have no system that can handle 10 
disks I need to use several PCs to copy the data.
