Hi

My pool has 7.28 TiB drives and one failed. I'd tried to replace with the same PN, but new disk shows only 7.15 TiB. Any chance to replace failed one with this?

Thanks
Ben

It won't hurt to try, but 130 GB seems way too much for it to work. You have 2 GB of swap, which might as well be nothing in this case, plus whatever ZFS left out due to how metaslabs are setup, which I don't think would amount to that much.

I think you need to go back to your vendor and have them replace the disk with something that is the right size or larger.
