The others all have 2008 timestamps so could not have been part of the desired array at any recent date. Sorry. You *could* assemble the other array, though, to see what's there: mdadm -Afv /dev/mdX /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdb4 /dev/sdd With the failure mode you described, I doubt the series of rebuilds would have destroyed much.
