Subject: Problem with RAID-5 not adding disks

Dear List.
Hello.
I have the following problem with my CEntOS 6.5 RAID-5
Array of five disks.
At some point in time I added the fifth disk, however I do not remember
if I added it as a spare or to go up to RAID-6.
The power and faulty UPS caught me so my RAID-5 has failed (alongside
with the on board controller :) )
After replacing the MB, I am in the following situation:
/dev/md0:

Every effort to add at least one more disk ends up in error:
[root ~]# mdadm /dev/md0 --re-add /dev/sdd
mdadm: --re-add for /dev/sdd to /dev/md0 is not possible
I also made sure that the devices are in the correct physical order.
mdadm --examine /dev/sd[b-f]

Any chance to revive this array?
