So such a device is transparent to the host where it will be connected to. With other words, Linux will see just a single storage device, not md0 (as it is no software RAID) but sda for instance. How to configure such an external storage device depends on the device. You will have to consult the manual. Probably the BIOS allows you to arrange the drives into the RAID arrays you want to have.
