3 SSD's in RAID Bad Sectors and Failing Question

dlscientist

I have 3 SSD's and I want to wear them all out before I get a new SSD to replace them all. I want to use them as my OS Drive. However I am confused as to how RAID handles bad sectors and drive capacity shrinking . If I have a spanning array or striping array and a sector fails causing one of the drives' storage capacity to become smaller, will the RAID controller adjust the array maximum capacity automatically? (ex. The array consists of 3x 150gb SSD's 450gb total, one SSD looses 1GB of data due to bad sectors. Will the RAID controller adjust the maximum capacity of the array to 449gb for either spanning or striping?)
