I did another test. First of all I shutdown and powered down the server
properly. Then I unplugged one device and started the computer again.
mdadm detected the missing device. After a couple of minutes I re-
attached the SATA cable. mdadm didn't make an attempt to integrate the
partitions.
Here is an output of mdadm -D for the MD device and -E for all three
partitions. /dev/sdc1 is the partition of the disk that was missing
during boot. The 'Array State : AAA' of /dev/sdc1 looks suspicious to
me.
