What kind of disks? Does it go away after a 'repair'?
Show smartctl -a of both disks in the raid?

My swap is on a different RAID 1, but my other RAID 1 with the root
partition was showing inconsistencies as well. It does it on both my

The issue I've had with RAID 1 using mdadm is the disk's aren't
consistent. I've noticed that unlike RAID 5 when a write is aborted
mdadm doesn't completely write the data.

When I run a check on the RAID 1 I always have inconsistencies where I
have never had one on a RAID 5. The issue here is you never know if
the inconsistencies can be ignored or are signs of a failing disk,
etc.

I sent an email to the list previously on this with no response.

I have asked about this before as well, do you have your swap on raid1? I
recall someone replying that it was normal if that is the case.
