RAID 9 x 500GB on 3 disks?

looking to set up a photography PC slash storage. Below is my disk drives

500GB SATA

2.0TB SATA

2.0TB SATA

500GB ePCI NVMN --- use this as the PC

It occurred to me, if I partition the 2TB in 4x500GB, and same for the second one, I have 9 500GB partitions. Allowing Raid with 3 partition (one from each drive)

My Question is: the remaining 1.5TB in 500GB chunks on each drive (so 3TB total) - can I then use this as per normal, as in not aprt of the RAID setup?
