Identify actual drives/partitions behind RAID

Hi,

I want to be able to identify the exact device creating truble for my
RAID-5 backed LVM.

The issue:

I have a 4 disc RAID-5 array that holds my /home asan LVM volume
group. Recently, I am getting errors like:

Buffer I/O error on device dm-7, logical block 10526729

So, I do:

# dmsetup table /dev/dm-7
0 251658240 linear 9:127 2048

Major 9, Minor 127 is my MD device "/dev/md127"

My /dev/md127 is made up of 4 disk partitions.

I want to know on what disk does "logical block 10526729" lie so that
I can identify the culprit and replace that disk.

Any ideas?
Best,
Sachin
