Hi Benji, I did take a read of your blog before posting this. But it didn't have the exact answer I was looking for. OS Version is Solaris 10 U9 x86. Your blog was highly informative, but didn't say if you can zfs replace into a 4kb drive - it was more discussing the ability to detect the WD drives as 4kb during a zpool create/
I was hoping to do this without creating a new device, although I can understand the technical reason why this isn't possible.
