I can't say this with 100% certainty but I would of thought that it
would been fine. I've lost my mdadm.conf (reinstalled OS) with a
separate 4 disk RAID 5 array and re-assembled the array and carried on
as if nothing had happened.
Use "sudo mdadm -E --scan" do get a list of discovered RAID devices
like this example:
ARRAY /dev/md0 level=raid0 num-devices=2 UUID=fde94900:3f3f3bf6
Pop the results in your mdadm.conf and that should sort you out after
a reboot (I think). Also try something like "sudo mdadm --assemble
/dev/md1
/dev/sdb1 /dev/sdc1" to assemble the RAID manually.
