The rebuild could have been triggered by a redundancy check, if your 
distro or RAID setup is configured as such.  So, a rebuild event is not 
necessarily indicative of a problem.

however, you may want to check the S.M.A.R.T. status of the disc drives 
and do any other due diligence (such as scheduling downtime, running a 
disk utility, etc.) if that results in greater peace of mind.
