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.

Thanks
