Well, you're in luck, because these numbers are the major and minors for
sdc and sdd:

$ ls -l /dev/sdd
brw-rw----    1 root     disk       8,  48 May  5  1998 /dev/sdd
$ ls -l /dev/sdc
brw-rw----    1 root     disk       8,  32 May  5  1998 /dev/sdc

(hex 20 and 30 => decimal 32 and 48)

I'm not sure why md sometimes puts the major:minor instead of the device
name. Perhaps has something to do with the driver for your sdc and sdd?
I'm guessing here...
