Except it doesn't. The reason I'm doing these single disk tests is that pulling a single SATA drive out of my main pool (5 sets of 3 way mirrors) hangs the whole pool (or if I set failmode=continue, crashes solaris, even though it's a data pool and holds nothing the OS needs at all). I also saw before with mirrored iSCSI drives that pulling the network cable on one hung the ZFS pool for 3 minutes. ZFS handles checksum errors great, but it doesn't seem to cope with the loss of devices at all.
