From "man mdadm":
1, 1.0, 1.1, 1.2 default
Use the new version-1 format superblock. This has few restrictions. The different sub-versions store the superblock at
different locations on the device, either at the end (for 1.0), at the start (for 1.1) or 4K from the start (for 1.2). "1"
is equivalent to "1.0". "default" is equivalent to "1.2".
If you want to be able to mount the individual RAID1 members but still use
the newer version superblock, you need to use version 1.0 (stored at the
end of the device/partition).
I'd recommend to go with 1.0 instead of 0.90.
