Looks like poor hardware, how was the pool built?  Did you give ZFS the
entire drive?

On my nForce4 Athlon64 box with two 250G SATA drives,

zpool status tank
  pool: tank
 state: ONLINE
 scrub: none requested
config:

        NAME        STATE     READ WRITE CKSUM
        tank        ONLINE       0     0     0
          mirror    ONLINE       0     0     0
            c3d0    ONLINE       0     0     0
            c4d0    ONLINE       0     0     0

dd from the mirror gives about 77MB/s
