Thank you very much for the quick answer! One last one... This is how my entry in mdadm.conf look: DEVICE /dev/sd[bcdefg]1 ARRAY /dev/md5 level=raid5 num-devices=6 UUID=a4a5dae9:04a09c3a:cd3fd7be:b754f4fe devices=/dev/sdb1,/dev/sdc1,/dev/sdd1,/dev/sde1,/dev/sdf1,/dev/sdg1 Do the order of the devices matter? Thanks again!
