Hi, Attach both original drives to the system, the faulty one may only have had a few check sum errors. zpool status -vshould hopefully show your data pool. Provided you have not started to replaced the faulty drive yet. If it don't see the pool, zpool export then zpool import and hope

Is this a mirrored pool or a striped one? If it was mirrored, you can just replace the faulty drive and it should rebuild. If it was just striped I don't know where you stand. Copies=2 isn't a replacement for redundancy, I don't know if that pool is going to be in a usable state. We really n
