Detached zfs pool, no snapshot newbie

I'm an idiot, I have a raid 10 setup, Freenas 9.2.0 with 6x 3TB and 2x 4TB drives, one of the 4TB failed and I tried to replace it but had no luck. The long and the short of it, is in misreading a forum, I detached the pool without any snapshots in place and now, when I try to re-import the pool, it recognizes it (auto import has it as an option with original name and ID number) but fails.

Using the Shell, if I try importing it gives the "one or more devices is currently unavailable"

I've tried cloning the bad drive and repairing it, and although the bad/repaired HDD is an option if I want to build a new pool, I still get the "one or more devices is currently unavailable" error on import attempts.

I've tried -D and -F and as a newbie, am now at a loss as to what to do.

Thought I'd ask here before I just write off the data and start from scratch.

Thanks in advance for your patience with my ignorance.

Snapshots should not make any difference in your case.
Please show what exactly zpool import gives you.
If you've lost a part of raid0 totally, than you've probably lost everything. If not, at lease something must be recoverable.
  1. The worse situation becomes, the more you have think before do
  2. Make copy of all of your drives if possible
  3. Always use -o readonly when trying to import something damaged
And show what zdb -d -e your-poolname shows
 
Thanks, always nice to learn new tricks.

zdb -d -e your-poolname

For a problem-free non-imported pool:

Code:
% zdb -d -e Transcend
zdb: can't open 'Transcend': No such file or directory
% sudo zdb -d -e Transcend
