you should be using partition type DA (Non-FS data)

I tried gdisk but does not know about DA00.

I tried fdisk and created an array from the resulting partitions.
That would only use the first 2TB of the 3TB disks.

Then I tried fdisk, but used the whole disks for the array.
That seems to work, although mdadm gave a lot of warnings
about the fact that the drives were partitioned.
The partition table does not seem to be wiped, however.

Is the latter way the way it is supposed to be done now?

Thanks,
Pim
