Explanation

raidhotadd (option A) is the correct command for re-adding a partition to a software RAID array in Linux - it performs a "hot add," meaning the partition can be added while the array is running without requiring a shutdown. Options B (raidadd) and C (addraid) do not exist as valid Linux RAID commands. Option D (raidaddhot) reverses the word order and is simply a fabricated distractor.

Memory tip: Think "hot add" in that exact order - the command mirrors the action: raid + hot + add. If you remember you're doing a hot add to a raid, the word order writes itself.
