Check the disks in the “Disk” Program in Ubuntu > Activities > Search for Disks.

Run the smart data tests:

To remove errors (assuming the drive has not failed…) run:

zpool clear myzpool

sudo zpool status
  pool: myzpool
 state: ONLINE
status: Some supported and requested features are not enabled on the pool.
	The pool can still be used, but some features are unavailable.
action: Enable all features using 'zpool upgrade'. Once this is done,
	the pool may no longer be accessible by software that does not support
	the features. See zpool-features(7) for details.
