This is not unusual - raid just keeps on going if a disk fails.
When things are working again you really should read up on "mdadm -F" -
it runs as a daemon and sends you mail if any raid events occur.

See if FC4 has a script that automatically runs it - you may need to
tweak some config parameters somewhere (I use Debian so I'm not much help).
