A couple of questions about a DIY NAS

I´m using a legacy PC for the build.. with an ASROCK DUAL SATA2 Mobo
So
Its safe to install a NAS OS like FreeNAS or similar into a basic USB pen drive?
If this thumb drive dies, all my data its lost ? (not the config and ths OS files but the images, docs etc)
If i create a RAID, via the Nas OS, and for any raison i broke my config or the USB drive go away... can i bring back the raid or everything its lost..
A Raid PCI Card works aside of the NAS OS
Thanks in advance
* USB drives die from constant read-writes not recommended.
* If this dies data is not lost
* If you format the OS data in the raid remains intact
* A pcie card is needed only if your motherboard does not have enough sata ports
