I am not experiencing this issue then. My devices are in /dev after the
raid drop out. I can use smart scanning on them without issue also.

does it momentarily offline the disks? like they re-appear in /dev
within moments? That would be similar behavior to what I am
experiencing, the disks drop from the array, but they are in /dev by the
time I get a chance to see them.
    

No, either the disks need to be physically removed and re-inserted, or
the machine needs to be rebooted.
