Whether there will be a sense from software RAID0 through USB2.0?

There is a Raspberry Pi.
I set up a media server there and want to stream lossless audio over the web. There is no USB3.0 on Raspberry.
Will there be any profit if I make RAID0 via Linux mdadm and connect 2 HDDs via USB-BOX via 2 USB2.0 ports? Are there pitfalls?

stream on the web

Can your raspberry even recycle the net?
To at least stutter about disk performance.

On usb 2 it holds a stream of 20-30 megabytes per second from where you get such audio, raspberries will not have time to decode such a stream, well, this is more than a hundred megabit network for raspberries

There is. One disk flops (and this happens relatively often over USB) - goodbye to all data.
