"... and RAID luns with 512B sector size and 15TB!!! total size - are you really sure your BIOS can actually address 15TB lun (with 512B sector size)? Note that the problem with large disks can hide itself till you have pool filled up enough till the essential files will be stored above the limit meaning that you may have perfectly working¡ setup till at some point in time, after next update, it is suddenly not working any more."
