When the disk dies, the replacement disk must be exactly the same size. Been there, done that. I allways make partition few GB smaller than the physical size. It's not always possible to get the same type of the replacement disk.
I thought that newer versions of md could accomodate small size differences (just as hardware RAID controllers can). I know I have an md array with at least two different drive models (though IIRC all from the same manufacturer).
