well, thanks for the hint using SSDs, i might consider that.
still, what is happening here is different. the new stick has been verified working without read/write problems. i assumed the problem might occur because of pre-existing partitions and data, but i just wiped the stick and retried the pool replace operation through the UI, same error message.
currently i don't see a way to replace the failed devic by UI.

resilvering a USB device adds additional stress (often causing it to fail). The recommendation is to instead install the same FreeNAS version to a new stick and to restore your config. Alternately, consider using an SSD for the boot device.

old usb device was faulted due to write errors. plugged an additonanl usb stick as replacement and started replacing through UI. new device still has some partitions/data, was an opnsense installer. i wanted to clear/overwrite it during replacement.
pool: freenas-boot
state: DEGRADED
status: One or more devices are faulted in response to persistent errors.
Sufficient replicas exist for the pool to continue functioning in a
degraded state.
action: Replace the faulted device, or use 'zpool clear' to mark the device
repaired.
