-Note: Auto-detection will automatically use all unused disks (not mounted, not in RAID, not in LVM, not formatted) if `mdadm_arrays` is empty and `mdadm_auto_detect_arrays` is true.
+**Note**: Auto-detection will automatically use all unused disks (not mounted, not in RAID, not in LVM, not formatted) when `auto_detect: true` and `devices: []`. Setting both `auto_detect: true` and defining `devices` will result in an error.
