Okay, disk ada1 is ok, but you need to replace ada0 and you won't be able to trust any data that is on it right now. To find out the disk and serial number to replace use
That being said, both boot and data pools are using ZFS out of the box. What ZFS is really good at is making sure your data is safe, but you really need to follow some basic rules and give it the right hardware and enough disks to do it's job. As I still hope this is a test machine and you are in it to learn, you can try to install a new copy of FreeNas on two devices and import your config again. Then import the data pool. Then add another disk to the datapool to create at least a mirror. (oh and add an extra fan, those disks will be hotter when you add more of them). Then add backups, recursive snapshots and schedule smart tests.
When you want to start using FreeNas properly, start reading on the requirements and suggested hardware, make a list and double check it in the forum. There are some (really) active members here that I would easily give the title of hardware wizard.
