 use FlexRAID  RAID-F  with external disk enclosure

e2001

I would like to know if I can use FlexRAID  RAID-F  with a 5 bay external disk enclosure that is connected via USB 3.0

 

my enclosure is not always connected, just when I need to access the disks , typically 3-6 hours every other day

but I would like to create a pool + RAID using RAID-F for those 5 disks 

 

I guess what i am asking is , would RAID-F work for this scenario where I have a number of disks ( JBOD ) in an external enclosure that is only connected at particular times  ? 

 

 

thanks
