It shouldn't be possible. The size of the array is impossible. If there are N chunks per device, then there are 5*N chunks on the whole array, and there are are two copies of each data chunk, so 5*N/2 distinct data chunks, so that should be the size of the array. So if we take the size of the array, divide by chunk size, multiply by 2, divide by 5, we get N = the number of chunks per device. i.e. N = (array_size / chunk_size)*2 / 5 If we plug in 3662836224 for the array size and 512 for the chunk size, we get 2861590.8, which is not an integer. i.e. impossible. What does "mdadm --examine" of the various devices show?
