So, I am trying to do a clean install and I am running into some very odd problems. Just about all of them are documented in threads individually, but it doesn't seem anyone is getting all of them together.
First... Hardware. It's a dual Xeon box. 24 GB RAM. Adaptec 5445 RAID controller in JBOD mode. Seagate disk (info below). Detailed information below...
System: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5520 @ 2.27GHz
Operating Sytem: FreeNAS-9.2.1.8-RELEASE-x64 (e625626)
Memory: 24492MB
More info on the RAID controller:
[root@storage02] ~# dmesg | grep -i Adaptec
aacu0: <Adaptec RAID 5445> mem 0xb1a00000-0xb1bfffff irq 24 at device 0.0 on pci2
aacu0: Adaptec 5445, aac driver 3.1.2-30035
More info on the disk:

Below is a list of odd behavior I am seeing...
Any help would be appreciated, I have exhausted my knowledge and googling skills trying to figure out whats going on. The only thing I can think may be a possibility is that the driver pack from Adaptec is compatible with FreeBSD 9.2, but not FreeNAS 9.2. I have attached the driver I am attempting to use as well.
If anyone needs more detailed information, please don't hesitate to ask.
Thank you.

Below is a list of odd behavior I am seeing...
- Unable to create zpool (ZFS Volume). See file FreeNAS_error.txt attached.
- Disks showing up twice under "show disks". This problem is outlined in this thread. The circumstances around this happening is after I do full wipes of the disks, sometimes they are showing back up as doubles when they are fully zero/random'ed out.
- I can't do quick wipe's of the disks after they are partially configured by the ZFS Volume Manager. Despite the error attached, gpart show does in fact show slices... however the zpool is not being created. After I fully wipe the disk I can then quick wipe it. The error supplied is, "Error, failed to wipe da0: dd: /dev/da0: Operation not permitted" (this error can be viewed in the screenshot attached).
- In the View Disks tab, I noticed that the Serial number shows when I have whatever permissions are allowing me to quick-wipe a disk. When I can't quick wipe the disk the Serial Number field is blank (this behavior can be seen in the screenshot attached).
