Sounds like it will work, but it will be MUCH faster if you can use a sata port on your motherboard, or even get one of those usb to sata connectors and plug it in the back. I took my backend offline while doing it, and simply temporarily decommissioned one drive that wasn't involved in / or the faulty drive, juggling the others as needed. 


I inferred he was going to put the drives in another machine to do the recovery - and I assume using the on-board SATA ports in that machine.
