Your counter-question baffles me a bit... but:
Can you point at any part of that wiki page that actually deals with how
to produce a 4kblocksize pool on a SATA, not a SCSI, drive that is
actually 4k physical blocksize but reports having 512 bytes blocks.
The trick of editing sd.conf shouldn't work on SATA drives, since
they're not scsi, and sd.conf deals with SCSI harddisks plus some ATAPI
CD/DVDs and such..
Or am I missing something?
P.S. I can't just test right now, since the machines are miles away,
otherwise I would have just plugged the drives in and tested. I'd like
to know more before spending a couple of hours on a possibly meaningless
test.

When I look around in all the various places where the 4k blocksize issue is
discussed, it turns out all the advice only ever deals with SCSI or SAS
drives.....
After reading this page [1], what specific further questions do you
have? The goal is to have that page a catch-all for your kind of
question.
