BSD host of issues on reboot from fresh install

Between RAIDz1 and RAID6 w/LVM on top, ZFS based RAID wins by a long shot. After spending the weekend playing around with it, one can see why those who've used it love it. I haven't had time to get my 4-port PCIe to SATA converter running on FreeBSD, however I am currently migrating 7TB of data from a RAID6 array on Linux to the RAIDz1 I assembled on (4) 4TB WD MyPassport external drives. Hoping it will be recognized by the RockPro64 FreeBSD host, via a USB hub. I don't want to keep the MyPassports online because they are not server grade. Was thinking they would work well with a Raspberry Pi 3B+ if paired with PoE and the 4 USB 2.0 ports on that machine. Then I could remotely fire up that device when doing a weekly backup, once I pick up the server grade HDDs for my NAS.
Quartz64, RockPro64, PinePhone Mobian, PineBook Pro, PineTime, and all the trimmings that make FOSS fun.
