I can't believe I missed that, thanks. Seems pretty flakey hardware. mdadm says it's okay one minute, then bad key, umount, mdadm stop && start && mount and it's okay, then it's bad again. These are Sony 4 Gb keys. I think I'll relegate usbkey based storage to the "if desperate" category. -- Any technology distinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced.
