Allocate disks from space in a RAID?

So, Apple's stupid TimeMachine will not work unless it is backing up to ITS OWN ENTIRE DISK and I have 2 machines I'd like to use it on. I have a 6 TB (2x4) RAID-5 array and I'm hoping there's a way to partition a couple 500 GB disks to give to TimeMachine.  It won't work just using a folder.  BTW, I already have files on on the RAID volume that I do NOT want to lose.

Consider Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper. They may give the result you want and are more flexible than Time Machine
