Hello, list and Merry Christmas to all

I am facing some weird checksum errors during scrub. The configuration is
the following:

Board:        Supermicro Motherboard X10DRi-T4+ (
http://www.supermicro.com/products/motherboard/xeon/c600/x10dri-t4_.cfm)
Controller:  LSI SAS 9300-8i (
http://www.lsi.com/products/host-bus-adapters/pages/lsi-sas-9300-8i.aspx)
HDD:         21X6TB Western Digital WD60EFRX
HDD:         2XIntel SATA 600GB Solid-State Drive SSDSC2BB600G401 DC S3500
(SWAP, ZIL, CACHE)
Chassis:    Supermicro 847BE1C-R1K28LPB 4U Storage Chassis
RAM:         64 GB

I installed initially FreeBSD 10.1-RELEASE created one pool consistent by 3
X7disk VDEVs in RAIDZ3. I used NFS to start copying some data. After
copying around 3TB I initiated a scrub.
The result was the following: http://pastebin.com/rswgCY2A and
http://pastebin.com/DQ2urGXk

I tried to flash the controller but the LSI utility did not recognize the
controller. I installed FreeBSD 9.3-RELEASE and used LSI's mpslsi3 driver.
I was able to flash the latest bios and firmware that way.

I recreated the pool again and started writing data via NFS again. After 3
TB of data I started a scrub and I am still getting checksum errors though
there are no messages regarding the drives anymore in /var/log/messages

  pool: Pool
 state: ONLINE
status: One or more devices has experienced an unrecoverable error.  An
attempt was made to correct the error.  Applications are unaffected.
action: Determine if the device needs to be replaced, and clear the errors
using 'zpool clear' or replace the device with 'zpool replace'.

errors: No known data errors

This is really driving me crazy since smartmon tools do not display any
errors on the drives.

Any suggestions are most welcomed!!!

Thank you for your time,
