Then your belief that the drive has never been part of a raid array seems to be incorrect. If you reinstall dmraid and run sudo dmraid -n /dev/sda ( assuming that sda is the drive in question ) and it prints out the metadata, then the drive was, and for our purposes, still is, part of a raid array. If that is the case and you are not really using it in an array then you should run sudo dmraid -E /dev/sda to erase the raid metadata.
