You could try using smartctl to query the disk directly, although I
don't recall if it works on the x4500.  Normally 1 error is not a big
deal.  Clearing the errors and re-running the scrub would not hurt
anything and if you get errors again then it may be worth checking the
disk further.  Perhaps swapping it with a known good drive to make sure
the disk is the problem and not the cable.

If you start seeing hundreds of errors be sure to check things like the
cable.  I had a SATA cable come loose on a home ZFS fileserver and scrub
was throwing 100's of errors even though the drive itself was fine, I
don't want to think about what could have happened with UFS...

Hope that helps,
Jonathan
