The Maxtor Maxline+II 250Gb SATA drive (mfg date: feb 2004) is now out and I'm starting the RMA procedure.

No data lost (yet) so we can still watch TV - thanks everyone (especially Neil)

David,

How have you set things up to achieve this?

See the section on Monitor mode (-F option) in the mdadm man page.
Debian's mdadm package, for example, sets it up so mdadm -F gets run
automatically at boot time to monitor your arrays.

Sorry, I wasn't clear enough in my question...

I am aware of mdadms' monitor mode; in fact, I'm sure it used to run
when I first started using mdadm (on Fedora Core 2 installed from rpm
built myself from src rpm).

I seem to remember that this was disabled at some stage but can't
remember the detail - possibly something to do with preventing the array
from shutting down cleanly because mdadm -F was open on it.

I am hoping that someone can suggest how best to run mdadm -F on Fedora
Core 2. Perhaps it could be as simple as creating a script in
/etc/init.d/ which would terminate before the array is shutdown?
