When I was using mdadm I would do it all the time. It is the easiest
way to do RAID with devices of different sizes. You just set up
multiple arrays
Hello list,
Does it make sense to install a partition table on a RAID-1 device? I assume
it would only include a single partition table, but it might prevent some
programs from complaining they don't recognise the partition type. I have
one such device for /boot and another for lvm2 volumes.

If you're creating a RAID array from partitions, you don't need to create
further partitions. The only time I would partition an md device is if it
were

If you worry about waste consider bind-mounting both from the same

If you worry about waste consider bind-mounting both from the same
partition and install quotas to avoid one filling up the other.
