I'm planning to buy two 2-TB-drives for ZFS with FreeBSD 8.0.
I don't know about the sector size of this drives, but lets assume 4k

I there any documented and recommend way to get 4k-drives working with 
ZFS with *good* performance? Do we need a workaround here or is updating
to a latest -STABLE a solution here? 

TIA
