cannot zpool remove a top level vdev

[nimaajben]

I have a Pool call Tank1 with 2 vdev, each vdev contains one 4TB HDD, I would like to make them independent pool so that the pool will not failed once any of HDD dead.

I ran the

zpool remove -pw Tank1 gptid/50da9f7f-ee04-11ea-a346-109027e866a1

and I got this

cannot remove gptid/50da9f7f-ee04-11ea-a346-109027e866a1: invalid config; all top-level vdevs must have the same sector size and not be raidz.

I ran below command and notice one of my Sector Sizes: 512 bytes logical, 4096 bytes physical, and other one is Sector Size: 512 bytes logical/physical.

Is there a way to make them same? Thanks

Not while they are still in the pool...

You're in the "evacuate the data and trash/re-create the pool" territory here.
