I'd look at iostat -En. It will give you a good breakdown of disks that have seen errors. I've also spotted failing disks just by watching an iostat -nxz and looking for the one who's spending more %busy than the rest of them, or exhibiting longer than normal service times.

I am pretty sure I have a broken disk, however I cannot for the life of me find out which one. zpool status gives me nothing to work on, MegaCli reports that all virtual and physical drives are fine, and iostat gives me nothing either. What other tools are there out there that could help me pinpoint what's going on?
