If the array is running the output says that the device (/dev/md0) is
busy, although I already umounted it. So I have to do a 'raidstop'
before I remove a disk.
The actual output of /proc/mdstat is:
Personalities: [raid1] [translucent]
read_ahead 1024 sectors
md0: active raid1 sdb1[0] sda1[1] 17777777 blocks [2/2] [UU]
unused devices: <none>
