We use supermicros on some rather largish servers, and they're very stable. Thee issue here is probably a driver or controller issue, see http://www.mail-archive.com/zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org/msg32079.html > Back when I had my problem I was testing all the drives 1 by 1 and all > the cables, and all the different combinations of things... it was all > useless. when something so fishy appears beware of the controllers.

The controller is running a firmware without RAID support, so everything's JBOD. The storage chassises don't have any configuration, they just have a SAS expander, that's all.
