I took a look at the expert list archive and found some problems with
the Western Digital HDD. 
I installed mdk7.1 on another hard disk and there is no problem.
In the list archive I found a black list of "old" WD hdd not supported
by Linux, my HD isn't in the list but I think it have to be added.
I think there is some modifications, about hardrive handling, from
2.2.14 to 2.2.15, or configurations changes between mdk7.0 and mdk7.1 ?
It's a strange decision to stop supporting 4-5 years old hardware !
