Yes, follow Marion's suggestion do a dd if=/dev/rdsk/c8t3d0s0 of=/dev/null bs=4k count=100000 on the failed drive, look for the activity light to find out which one is faulted, replace it with a good one and then do a zpool clear. > I am so not looking forward to moving the 2.4TB of data around again.
