Well, in most cases resilver in ZFS should be quicker than resilver in
a disk array because ZFS will resilver only blocks which are actually
in use while most disk arrays will blindly resilver full disk drives.
So assuming you still have plenty unused disk space in a pool then zfs
resilver should take less time.
