Thanks Richard - interesting...
The c8 controller is the motherboard SATA controller on an Intel D510
motherboard.
I've read over the man page for iostat again, and I don't see anything in there
that makes a distinction between the controller and the device.
If it is the controller, would it m
Except for meta data which seems to be written in small pieces, wouldn't having
a zfs record size being a multiple of 4k on a vdev that is 4k aligned work ok?
Or can the start of a zfs record that's 16kb for example start at any sector in
the vdev?

My suspicion was the same: the drive doing the slow i/o is the problem.

I have a Opensolaris snv_134 machine with 2 x 1.5TB drives. One is a Samsung
Silencer the other is a dreaded Western Digital Green.
I'm testing the mirror for failure by simply yanking out the SATA cable while
the machine is running. The system never skips a beat, which is great. But the

I have an odd setup at present, because I'm testing while still building my
machine.
It's an Intel Atom D510 mobo running snv_134 2GB RAM with 2 SATA drives (AHCI):
1: Samsung 250GB old laptop drive
2: WD Green 1.5TB drive (idle3 turned off)

I'm running snv_134 on 64-bit x86 motherboard, with 2 SATA drives. The zpool
"rpool" uses whole disk of each drive. I've installed grub on both discs, and
mirroring seems to be working great.
I just started testing what happens when a drive fails. I kicked off some

I've set up an iScsi volume on OpenSolaris (snv_134) with these commands:
sh-4.0# zfs create rpool/iscsi
sh-4.0# zfs set shareiscsi=on rpool/iscsi
sh-4.0# zfs create -s -V 10g rpool/iscsi/test
The underlying zpool is a mirror of two SATA drives. I'm connecting from a Mac
client with global SAN i
