Linux raid autodetect (fd) or Linux RAID (ee)

Ubuntu 20.04 up to date.

I'm trying to setup a raid with 8TB disks and I'm following this guide using fdisk

I can't change partition type to fd. When I type fd and press enter the response is "Partition type unchanged"

I listed all types and there is "Linux RAID" but not "Linux raid autodetect" and "Linux RAID" is "type ee"

I chose Linux RAID and when I check with gparted the raid flag is checked.

Am I good to go? Why can't I choose fd? What is the difference between fd and ee? Disk size?
