I wouldn's say High-End - as I said I have yet to see checksum error
reported by ZFS on SAS/FC arrays.

However on midrange arrays with sata disks it happened many times.

Just a quick look to IBM page for example:

http://www-304.ibm.com/jct01004c/systems/support/supportsite.wss/docdisplay?lndocid=MIGR-64357&brandind=5000008
"85750 (85456) Data corruption after large RAID 5 Volume Group with 2
 LUNs
 Fix 92372 (92293) Media Scan with Redundancy Check caused data corruption (2)
 89814 IO device error or data corruption on DS4100
"

http://www-304.ibm.com/jct01004c/systems/support/supportsite.wss/docdisplay?brandind=5000008&lndocid=MIGR-55696
"269911 85753 85456 Data corruption after large VolGrp with 2 luns
 269921 80084 79485 79298 Data corruption occurred after spindown of GHS drive 
during copy back followed shortly by reset of the controller.

"

And you can find more and more...
