Yes. I think so, BUT make sure to pay attention to dealing with managing the key files for each volume. They get stored in 
the keys directory configured by the `KEY_DIR` variable in the `/path/to/key-manager.py` script.

If a key file is lost it is (obviously) impossible to retrieve the data from that volume, rendering your jobs on that volume 
useless. Probably a good idea to set up a master key file and store that somewhere safe as insurance for such a case.
