AARRGGHHHHH !!!

If you're using mdadm, DO NOT TOUCH USB WITH A BARGE POLE !!!

I don't know the details, but I gather the problems are very similar to
the timeout problem, but much worse.

I know the wiki says you can "get away" with USB, but only for a broken
drive, and only when recovering *from* it.

Cheers,
