I now have several devices that start the monthly mdadm scheduled check. I can let them all run monthly, stagger the checks, or disable them completely. I had the misfortune of several disks turning up bad this month causing a few arrays to run in a degraded state for many hours and I'm not sure what the idea setup is for this. Conversation regarding this topic would be greatly appreciated.

Do you have a specific question? – Andrew Nov 08 '11 at 23:23

You can set mdadm to send you email on degrading events. Simply have sendmail installed and running, and set this line in /etc/mdadm.conf:
MAILADDR address@somedomain.com

On Debian Jessie the config file is located at /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf by default. – Travis Mar 07 '16 at 01:08
