It was late when I wrote that, so let me clarify a few things.

Umm, why do you need to do it the complicated way ? Here it is from zpool man
page-
zpool replace [-f] pool old_device [new_device]
Replaces old_device with new_device. This is equivalent
to attaching new_device, waiting for it to resilver, and
then detaching old

Completely agree with Bob on this. I drive an 8.000lb truck and the

absolutely packed full; I know of no way to add any additional drives, or
internal SATA connectors. I have a dying drive in the array (hereafter "drive
