That is also a good question

Re: [zfs-macos] Overload? Frequent kernel panic with new, bigger array

Nope, betcha it is not software. Come on, daddy needs a new sportscar! 

Went through something similar about a month ago, 2 bad sata cables, 2 bad 
esata cables and that led to 2 bad drives. An honestly, pretty much every 
single issue I encounter is due to hardware. This is not the first time 
something so simple has had me scratching me head raw. Had cables split in half 
at connection, even power cables, only apparent when everything heats up and 
stuff sags a bit. PITA. Then I had 2 esata cables I just bought drop scrub 
speed down to Kb/s rather than 2G/s which really frustrated me until I dug out 
a couple old ones and zoom back to full speed. I really don't understand how 
C3PO and R2D2 can run amok with so few issues!

The good news is your data is there! If your using the latest stable ZFS (new 
stuff) you can really work through issues without as many headaches. Recovered 
a couple old pools recently, took some work, but I was pleasantly surprised. 
Yes, I keep such things around for just these kinds of tests. ;)

Did the sector size change ?

Interesting. I will try to examine the parts.


I was sure it was a software problem, since it only happens when the new, 
bigger pool has been mounted for a few hours.

This has almost always been bad cable, controller, and a drive or two in that 
order, at least with all the systems/pools I have under my thumbs.
