I think this is the best we can do: it's simple to add spacers to the Deep Space 9 mount to move four of the detectors forward, and it avoids putting the detectors at angles smaller than 5' where they would meet a speedy death.
The on-axis strips of the forward in-plane detectors will live for 10.4 days, assuming a 2 pnA beam current and 1e9 elastic events to kill them.
Hit pattern for reaction:
and especially for Alex, schematic drawings of the positions:
