I am in the same boat.  I got the first dozen of these drives thinking they’d work fine with ZFS (which supports the larger sector size).   However, the drives report a 512 sector size to the OS so it works pretty terribly.  (Poor performance).  The drives are all going back – or at the least we’ll be getting Seagate drives instead for the next boxes.
