Why not just --set-faulty or --fail with mdadm?
If you answer to Bad blocks maybe, can't test that., I'll say AFAIK,
--set-faulty will only stay at the md layer, and won't go through the
underlying driver (sata here, ata elsewhere, ...), so this
For ICH5 and all other controllers (non-AHCI) of course, I've always seen
md mark it faulty on a bad disk/sector/etc.
ICH7 (ahci) does not. At least not a whole disk dieing, don't know
about bad sectors.
I thought you were just trying to mark it faulty manually for the purpose
of rebuilding
