Do you have swap on the mirror at all?

As a matter of fact I do, /dev/md0_p2 is a swap partition.

I recently discovered/realised that when 'swap' writes to a raid1 it can end up 
with different
data on the different devices.  This is perfectly acceptable as in that case 
the data will never
be read.

Interesting ... care to elaborate a little?

Would disabling swap, running mkswap again and rerunning check return
0 in this case?

Regards,

C.
