I can. But I suppose it could also be in some unknown way a driver issue. Even before ZFS, I've had numerous situations where various si3112 and 3114 chips would corrupt data on UFS and PCFS, with very simple copy and checksum test scripts, doing large bulk transfers. Si chips are best used to clean coffee grinders. Go buy a real SATA controller.
