I bought a new 1 TB external USB disk from Western Digital (1) and put it in my 
2008.11 machine.The machine discovered the disk directly and I gave a 'zpool 
create xpool c11t0d0´ command and then this:

# zpool list
NAME SIZE USED AVAIL CAP HEALTH ALTROOT
[...]
xpool 928G 81K 928G 0% ONLINE -
# zpool status
[...]
pool: xpool
state: ONLINE
scrub: none requested
config:

NAME STATE READ WRITE CKSUM
xpool ONLINE 0 0 0
c11t0d0 ONLINE 0 0 0

errors: No known data errors


So fa, so good. Then I tried to create a ZFS filesystem and copy some data like 
this

# zfs create -o casesensitivity=mixed xpool/data
# rsync -a /data/ /xpool/data

After that all commands involving disk access just hanged. zfs, zpool, df can´t 
even end them with ctrl-c

Then I pulled the disk USB cable and inserted it again. Then the commands 
worked again but I got errors like this. (Just for this disk)

# zpool status -v xpool
pool: xpool
state: UNAVAIL
status: One or more devices are faulted in response to IO failures.
action: Make sure the affected devices are connected, then run 'zpool clear'.
see: http://www.sun.com/msg/ZFS-8000-HC
scrub: resilver completed after 0h0m with 0 errors on Sat Aug 15 00:23:35 2009
config:

NAME STATE READ WRITE CKSUM
xpool UNAVAIL 0 18 0 insufficient replicas
c11t0d0 UNAVAIL 12 27 0 experienced I/O failures

errors: Permanent errors have been detected in the following files:

Trying to scrub makes all commands hang again...
# zpool scrub xpool (no output for 3 hours...)

So, is my disk dead or can I just try to create a new pool on it? Ideas???
Is there anything else I've to do to get it working as a zpool???
