I would recommend using drives that are all the same size and giving them each a single partition unless you just wish to use the Linear function of mdadm. If you are ready for a more complicated arrangement, you probably don't need this section of the guide anyway.
Run fdisk as root on the first drive you wish to use in your array (you can type in fdisk -l to get device name and size information if you aren't sure what the drives you wish to use are called). In my case, that looked like this:
$ fdisk /dev/sdb
