Well, if you are talking Any Smith's (and my) advice, I'd do the
following:

* Umount the partition on the RAID array.

* Move /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf aside.

* Put partitions on each of the four drives. Don't bother to put a file
  system on any of them.

* Use the same command line you did before, *except* use the partitions
  you just created instead of the drives, to create the RAID array.

* Create the LVM stuff you need.

* Lay down an ext4 file system on logical volumes as needed.

* Add the LVs to /etc/fstab as needed.
