This seems to be a simple task because RAID5/Z runs just fine when it is 
missing one disk.  Just format one disk any way that works (take the array 
offline and do it with format or zpool, or boot into a different os boot cd, 
etc), copy the 124gb to it from the degraded array, destroy the raidz array, 
create a new 3 disk array, copy the 124gb back to it, and use the single disk 
elsewhere.
