I want to replace both disks in a RAID-1 with larger ones using the
instructions here:

It looks straightforward: mdadm -f, mdmadm -r, swap a drive, etc., etc.
Except if I -f & -r a drive, I won't know which physical drive to pull.
(And I have no spare SATA ports.)
smartctl -a -d ata /dev/sdx
will tell you the serial number of the drive, which then lets you
shutdown, identify and remove the correct one.
