Hearing about others having problems with these cabinets makes me concerned too. Oh, well! I connected the cabinets to a different Mac (an older Mini with USB 2 instead of 3), and the ZFS arrays now seem to be working. *holds thumbs* I am now going to set up a copy-job to see if that works

New day, new cables. Now the computer recognizes the two ZFS arrays, but once again I cannot read from or write to them. Old array: anderswallen:~ anderswa$ sudo zpool status -v pool: array state: ONLINE status: One or more devices are faulted in response to IO failures. action:

Addendum: To add insult to injury, the computer now refuses to accept both my older arrays (one ZFS Raid 6 and one HFS+ Raid 5). The ZFS one doesn't even show up on sudo zpool list, and the HFS+ one does not show up in App+le Disc Tools. -- --- You received this message because you are

Yeah, expected this sooner, bad cable. Just went through almost exactly the same sequence for a client. It was a SATA cable, but still getting issues after replacing it and one drive that was seemingly bad. And then all drives disappeared. Replaced the ESATA cable but is was also crap. Replaced
