However, there's another quirk which bit me: something in the Gentoo installation disk took it upon itself to renumber my /dev/md2 to /dev/md127. I raised bug #539162 for this, but it was decided not to fix it. (This was back in February 2015.)
I tend to treat the /dev/md<number(s)> to be somewhat fluid, much like I do /dev/sd<letter(s)>. I prefer to use UUID for raw file systems or LV names when using LVM for this reason.
$WORK uses sym-links from persistent names to the actual disk that is currently the desired disk.
