Evening,
One of my boot devices failed (it happens every couple of months). For this reason, I've been mirroring the boot environments for years.
On this occasion, when I've tried to replace the failed device, I'm given the following error:
Both devices are identical SanDisk Cruzer 16gb USB disks. I get that, as it says, new devices might need more space for change in procedure. But, the boot environments page says I'm only using 3.7gb of the 14.91 available. What's the deal?

Code:
[EFAULT] The new device (SanDisk Cruzer Fit, 14.91 GB, 31,266,816.0 blocks) does not have enough space to to hold the required new partitions (efi, 532,480 blocks, freebsd-zfs, 31,055,792 blocks, total of 31,588,272 blocks). New mirrored devices might require more space than existing devices due to changes in the booting procedure
