SmartArray P408i-a configuration maximums (Max LD Size)

Hello.

I've a question regarding SmartArray P408i controller in a ProLiant XL450 server.

I'm going to use controller with 8TB HDDs, adding them to RAID5 groups 8 disks in each.

The question is - will I be able to configure Logical Drive with a size of 56TB and pass it to OS? Is there a configuration maximum, a limit for LD size for this particular controller?

Second question is - Can I use two P408i controllers to establish redundant paths to server's drives?
