Each of the disks is reported as 400 GB (this is correct but with low precision). I have a 1 TB drive that is unused and recognized by the gnome-disk-utility. Using the GUI, I tried to add the unpartitioned 1 TB drive to the RAID array as a 'spare'. The GUI told me that it would create two partitions - one 400GB in size to be added to the RAID array, and the other 600GB that will be free. It performs the partitioning then, when mdadm runs to add it as a spare, it reports that the size 400GB is not large enough and fails. This is reported by the GUI. So I can not add a spare using the GUI. The two disks that are part of the functional array are unpartitioned - that is I am using the whole disks.
