Only if I'm partitioning the disk, surely. If I just throw the whole raw disk into mdadm (sdd, sde, sdf...) then isn't partitioning irrelevant?
So...you were planning on treating the RAID as a raw block device, too, then? :) Otherwise, when you go to partition *it*, I think you'll find that you need to use GPT.
LVM; pvcreate, vgcreate, lvcreate. What's a partition? :-)
But your filesystem has still to be aligned correctly. Is lvm 4k friendly ? Is md ?
