BTW it's a valid use case to safely place one of the mirrors far away connected via network or SAN. That's why you can set write-mostly and write-behind, see man md:
That can be done? :-O
I thought those things used something else than raid...
Running RAID on top of a SAN (iscsi) device is certainly possible. Almost certainly also on top of DRBD devices.
I meant one element local disk, another over the network.
I guess you don't know what iscsi or drbd are. iscsi is a network accessed disk so it would directly allow mdraid to talk to a remote disk for half the mirror. drbd - distributed replicated block device, is kernel subsystem whose only functionality is to provide split mirrors in a more sophisticated way than mdraid over iscsi.
