I did.. I can't find what this metadata: bit referes to though

I've been trying for 3 days to resolve those issues now.. I'm going to
just destroy the zpool ; I have a full mirror of that zpool on another
machine.

It's going to be the easiest way.

I'm still worried that for the first time I tried replaced disks, it
failed so miserably...

For some reason moving my SATA disk from on sata interface to another
failed. zpool would want to read the pool anymore, complaining that
the zpool version was too high (it's version 14, definitely ok).
Moving the disks bak to the original sata interface, and I can read
the pool just fine.

So What I did is unplug the diisk from the old interface, zpool import
it (now in degraded mode) and plug back the disk and wait for the
resilvering to complete.
