Running TrueNAS under VMWare is possible, but should be set up carefully. Read here:

"Absolutely must virtualize FreeNAS!" ... a guide to not completely losing your data

If the physical drive is handled by VMWare while TrueNAS trusts it operates a physical drive, you're set for failure.

why would it be dangerous?

Because it results in data loss and/or corruption, like you're seeing. It's a common fallacy for naïve folks attempting to virtualize TrueNAS/FreeNAS that the guest OS should be able to deal with virtual disks. This isn't true with ZFS, which is designed for direct, low-level access to disk hardware, without any virtual layer between it and the disks. ZFS also stresses drive controllers a lot more than the virtual drive controllers can manage, and they end up dropping bits to keep up.
