The first thing to verify is your network and network interface. Run
continuous traffic and see if there are any hickups.
You can use /usr/sbin/ping for testing with larger packets.
Also check the log files under /var/adm and /var/log. Also check output
of 'fmadm -ev' and 'fmadm faulty'.
I had similar issues before I enabled TLER, and disabled the head parking

features on the 3TB Hitachis.
I chose Hitachi because I didn't think they had this feature. I would have

I think BTRFS on openindiana would be a distraction and not worth the effort

the WD drives have a what WD call TLER, that is a setting that defines
how long the drive trys to read a bad sector before giving up at

I have not heard that any Solaris* can use disk/partition in zpool,
larger then 2TB. Maybe you can try partitioning disk with 2+1TB
