I had similar issues before I enabled TLER, and disabled the head parking on my WD Green drives. A quick Google shows some evidence of similar features on the 3TB Hitachis. On Tue, Jun 12, 2012 at 9:55 PM, Bob Friesenhahn < bfrie...@simple.dallas.tx.us> wrote: > On Tue, 12 Jun 2012, John McEntee

That is absolutely stunning. Many thanks for that. I guess I'm going to have to bite the bullet, wait until I've got another two 3tb drives and create a new pool. Thanks to all for the feedback. Your patience with me is much appreciated. On 12/06/12 17:44, Jim Klimov wrote: 2012-06-12 19:22,
