Think for a minute about what you are asking of me.....

You haven't given me any hint about what sort of problem you are having,
but you want me to guess what sort of help you want.
For the thousands of pages about mdadm on the internet, you have told me
that you have looked at just one, and found it wasn't helpful.

Seriously, what do you expect of me?  Do you think I have some secret
stack of example and I have haven't put on the internet for you to find,
but I'll just give them to you when you ask?  Or maybe you think I'll
spend hours writing up some examples just for you.

I recommend you start by reading the man pages:

 man md
 man mdadm
 man mdadm.conf

and then if that isn't enough, look at the test scripts in
the mdadm source tree, in the 'tests' directory.

Or maybe just use good "mdadm examples"
