My guess is that you wiped the ZFS metadata that made the disk part of a 
mirror and added it to the pool as another stripe.


It would help if you posted the relevant console session -- prompts, 
commands issued, output displayed, etc...


Please run the following commands and post the console session, 
substituting $POOLNAME as appropriate:

     # zpool list $POOLNAME

     # zpool status $POOLNAME
