I am using raidctl on a v440 disk and noticed it resyncs after every boot, which takes about 30 minutes because of the size of the partition. I am concerned with what happens during the resync if "writes" happen to the disk before it is complete?

I have boot disk mirrored using hardware raid i.e raidctl command.
If I want to place an order for a spare drive and keep it at our location for spare, how do I find the disk specification since #format does not reveal this.
