DL380 G7 Duplexing

[RonGlaister]

If you buy the additional drive cage, giving you the ability to add 16 drives total, you have to purchase the additional Array Controller.  With that said, can you then duplex the disks across Array Controllers?  Disk 1 of mirrorset 1 going to Array Controller 1, Disk 2 of mirrorset 1 going to Array Controller 1 - to form a Duplexed mirror across two Array Controllers as opposed to a standard mirror set on a single Array Controller?
