Hello guys, I have a Raid1 array that i created in the bios of this motherboard. On windows it is working properly and dispalying as if it was 1 drive.
On gentoo I installed sys-fs/mdadm and this is the result:

cat /proc/mdstat
Code:
Personalities : [raid1]
md126 : active (auto-read-only) raid1 sdb[1] sdc[0]
      1953511424 blocks super external:/md127/0 [2/2] [UU]
     
md127 : inactive sdc[1](S) sdb[0](S)
      6320 blocks super external:imsm
       
unused devices: <none>


To my eyes this looks kind of weird as md126 is an array of sdb and sdc and it is active.
Then if you look under it says md127 inactive and the drives are sdc and sdb. It is basically the same array but with the drives flipped around?! I don'r understand...

Also when i open the gnome disks utility i see different information:
This Raid array i do not know where it came from or what it is.

This is supposedly is the "real" array:

And this are the two disks that make the array:
