Why do you say that "the write IO errors are invisible for the

md is behaving as designed here. It deliberately does not fail the
whole array, it just fails those blocks which are no longer accessible.
I would imagine OP would be helped by mounting filesystem with
"errors=remount-ro" to make sure the filesystem stops writing to the
drives upon errors.
