Ok makes sense, but can I just destroy my current pool in the failed state and
then import it with the -f option and it should show up with all 4 drives...
pool: pool02
state: UNAVAIL
status: One or more devices could not be opened. There are insufficient
replicas for the pool to continue functioning.
action: Attach the missing device and online it using 'zpool online'.
see: http://illumos.org/msg/ZFS-8000-3C
scan: none requested
config:

Zfs puts identifying information on all the pool disks so that they may be
properly imported by pool name without regard for device identifiers. 'zpool
import' scans all of the available devices, searching for devices which are in
that pool.
If you don't want to physically move the drives again, then just re-import the
pool.
It is always a good idea to export a pool before moving its drives around and
then import the pool afterward. Usually it just takes a few seconds to import
the pool.
