The RAID array breaks (does not work, because disks are out of sync), and you can keep the pieces as a keepsake, I guess :) By the way. Does it mean, that performing a clean shutdown/boot sequence can result in an array requiring a resync? If this is the case, could you point me to arguments supporting this change of behaviour of shutdown process? I see no obvious reason and crave understanding.
