All 1TB disks should be exactly the same size (manufacturers are using
standard sizes for all disks nowadays). Are these drives all on the same
controllers? This looks like maybe the BIOS is reserving some space on
the disks, which may have overwritten something in the original array.
Have you run a fsck across the array after reassembling it? I suspect
you may find the filesystem size doesn't match the original one.
