I'd love to use OpenSolaris for exactly those reasons, but I'm wary of using an 
operating system that may not continue to be updated/maintained.  If 
OpenSolaris 
had continued to be regularly released after Oracle bought Sun I'd be choosing 
it.  As it is, I don't want to be pessimistic, but the doubt about 
OpenSolaris's 
future is enough to make me choose FreeBSD instead.  (I'm sure that such 
sentiments won't make me popular here, but so far Oracle has been frustratingly 
silent on their plans for OpenSolaris.)  At the very least, if FreeBSD doesn't 
do what I want I can switch the system disk to OpenSolaris and keep using the 
same pool.  (Right?)

Going back to my original question: does anyone know of any problems that could 
be caused by using raidz on top of encrypted drives?  If there were a physical 
read error, which would get amplified by the encryption layer (if I'm 
understanding full-disk encryption correctly, which I may not be), would ZFS 
still be able to recover?
