mdadm currently has a gaggle of open bugs, and every cycle the RAID ISO tests produce new and interesting bugs. It seems like we're doing something a bit wrong with Software RAID. There are some valid solutions here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ReliableRaid which should be discussed and either refuted or implemented.
