I've got a 4TB disk that just degraded my RAIDZ2 pool with 16 read errors. I've got a replacement ready and the appropriate backups already in place, so there's no risk of data loss. My question is this: what to do with this drive? I'd hate to toss it, but I don't particularly trust it anymore. Has anyone found a low-waste strategy for dealing with these things?
