Howdy!<br>
<br>
This is a SuperMicro JBOD with SATA disks. I am aware of the<br>
issues of having<br>
SATA on SAS, but was wondering just how serious these kinds of errors<br>
are.. a scrub of the pool<br>
completes without noticable problems.. I did a lot of stress testing<br>
earlier and could<br>
not get a failure. Disabling NCQ on the controller was a neccessary.<br>
What is the practical risk to data??<br>

Output of iostat -En<br>

Looks like "Hard Errors" and "No Device" correspond. What<br>
does "Transport Error" and "Recoverable" mean. I see no evidence<br>
of data corruption/loss, does ZFS deal/recover from these errors in a<br>
good/safe<br>
way?<br>
