I tried it and got a message that mdadm wasn't found. I used
apt-get install mdadm brtfs-progs

When you use ssh, you need to log in as root, using the NAS admin password.

Hard to say, certainly no need to install anything.
The (default) path is
root@RN628X:~# set | grep PATH
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin
root@RN628X:~# find / -name mdadm
/etc/mdadm
/etc/default/mdadm
/etc/logcheck/violations.d/mdadm
/etc/logcheck/ignore.d.server/mdadm
/run/mdadm
/sbin/mdadm
/usr/share/lintian/overrides/mdadm
/usr/share/mdadm
/var/lib/mdadm
root@RN628X:~# which mdadm
/sbin/mdadm
