Looking through the logs, I found this in daemon.log.0. Is this a
sign of a

Hmm. Is this 5GB RAID-1 your swap partition? If so, don't worry about it - there is an oddity that mismatches can crop up on RAID-1 arrays when a write is abandoned after one drive has been written but the other hasn't (I think that's the explanation), it's most often seen on swap, and it's harmless.

Red Hat disabled reporting mismatches on RAID-1 because of this.

Cheers,

John.
