You could set the permissions on the unmounted folder where NiFi can't write to them since the permissions when mounted come from the NFS share.
For example assume we're mounting to /mnt/nifi_dropoff, before mounting to that mount point create the directory set the permissions to 555 or something but after mounting set it to 755 or whatever permissions you want. Then you'll get a permission denied if the folder isn't mounted.

If it is a NFS share, the only way is to mount the share on the nifi nodes.
