You didn't say what version of Linux. Yes, that is the version of mdadm. I am running squeeze, which is a 2.6.32-5 version of the kernel, and it is an amd64 machine. >> > Are there any errors in the kernel logs when you --add the device? > > You didn't answer this question either.

There really must be something in the kernel logs at that time. It did resync, and is still a spare.... Now that I've fixed the logs, I'm going to try it again to see if there is any error that happens after the sync finishes. micah
