as far as i know, there are only 6 devices in this array, yet i
see 'Total Devices : 7'

i also see a failed devices, yet at the bottom, none of the devices
are marked as faulty.

here's the pertinent line from /proc/mdstat:
md0 : active raid5 sdp[5] sdo[4] sdn[3] sdm[2] sdj[1] sdi[0]
     716872960 blocks level 5, 128k chunk, algorithm 2 [6/6] [UUUUUU]

i'm not having any problems with the array, this just wasn't what i expected
to see.  could someone please explain?
