If you have only 1 volume with 5 TB, then if either disk fails you will lose all your data. With two volumes, a disk failure only loses the volume on that particular disk. So I personally don't recommend the single-volume RAID-0 mode for most users.
If the data is all copied from your desktop system, you could choose to keep it as is, and re-do it when you have the next disk failure.
If you'd rather fix it now, I'd suggest another reset with only the 4 TB drive in place, and again select flexraid. Then there is certainly a way to hot-insert the 1 TB drive as a separate volume.
