fdisk would have spewed a bunch of warnings. So you're okay.

I'm not sure of the details, but it's the classic "off by one" problem -
if there's a mismatch between the kernel block size and the disk block
size any writes required doing a read-update-write cycle which of course
knackered performance. I had that hit a while back.

But seeing as fdisk isn't moaning, that isn't the problem ...

I also thought of misaligned boundaries when I first saw the error, but the
mention of Seagate by the OP pointed me to another edge case which crept up
with zstd compression on ZFS.  I'm mentioning it here in case it is relevant:

that might be of interest to me ... I'm getting system lockups but it's not an SSD. I've got two IronWolves and a Barracuda.

But I notice the OP has a Barra*C*uda. Note the different spelling. That's a shingled drive I believe, which shouldn't make a lot of difference in light usage, but you don't want to hammer it!

Cheers,
Wol
