Hi, I have a fresh install of opensolaris snv_111b. I''m having problems
writing to an e-sata drive. I have tried upgrading to svn127 and the problem
persists. BIOS set for AHCI. Motherboard uses a AMD 760G + SB700 chipset. Drive
works fine in linux and windows with ext3/4 or ntfs. I''d like to use it
for backing up zfs. Its a seagate freeagent drive.
So I create a zpool:
root at stoey:/# format

I''ve searched the forums and they''ve been very helpful but I
don''t see anything about this. I created a pool with the internal sata
drives and there are no issues transferring data on those ports. What should I
try to isolate and hopefully resolve the issue?
Thanks,
Jason
