If you don't need that ability, you can just remove bitmap entirely, it's not mandatory. Run: mdadm --grow --bitmap=none /dev/mdX However I'd say being able to re-add drives is very useful, so first consider switching to a higher bitmap granularity, mdadm --grow --bitmap=none /dev/mdX mdadm --grow --bitmap=internal --bitmap-chunk=131072 /dev/mdX (or even 262144, 524288) as that will reduce the performance impact of the bitmap. -- With respect, Roman
