You don't say whether this is hardware or software raid.
I assumed software.
mbr should be put in boot blocks
Being "anal" on terminology, the physical "Master Boot Record" (MBR) in the PC architecture is Cylinder 0 of BIOS disk 80h (first fixed disk).
The traditional name for any boot stream outside of the physical MBR is typically called the "bootstrap" not MBR.
unless you have some other boot manager handling boot and needs to hand off the boot.
And that boot loader goes (at least partially) in the MBR, and then it targets other bootstraps.
