When you say "starts throwing sense errors," does that mean every I/O to the drive will fail, or some arbitrary percentage of I/Os will fail? If it's the latter, ZFS is trying to do the right thing by recognizing these as transient errors, but eventually the ZFS diagnosis should kick in. What does '::spa -ve' in 'mdb -k' show in one of these situations? How about '::zio_state'?
