A new driver was released recently that has support for ZFS; check the Coraid 
website for details.

We have a Coraid at work that we are testing and hope to (eventually) put on 
our production network. We're running Solaris 9, so I'm not sure how comparable 
our results are with your situation. Anyway, we have ours configured with 4 
RAID-5 volumes across 12 disks. The main reason that it's not being used in 
production yet, is that we have to get anywhere close to their advertised 
throughput. We're getting around 30 MB/sec reads and around 23 MB/sec writes. 
The Coraid is attached to via a cross-over cable to a V240. Last I knew, the 
Coraid development team was aware of throughput issues on Solaris, and was 
working to improve their drivers. We have not yet tested with jumbo frames; I 
would expect that that would improve things somewhat.
