2 Node Failover Cluster - ISCSI Disks as 1 volume?

$

Hi,

Not sure if I'm in the correct forum. If I am I apologize.  I need some advice.  

I have created a 2-node failover cluster with 2 HP Blades.  I also currently have 2 NAS Servers (HP X1600 24tb servers running 2008 Storage server) -- The ultimate goal would be to combine all of the storage space from the NAS's into 1 volume addressable by the failover cluster. (As well as disk space from any additional NAS's added in the future.)

Right now, I can add the ISCSI disk space from the NAS Targets as different volumes under cluster shared volumes.  Because of the 16TB limit in the ISCSI target, I essentially have 2 ISCSI disks on each NAS. One for 16TB, and the other for 4TB (The NAS Drives are configured for RAID 5 so there's a 4TB Loss.)  So, I have 4 ISCSI disks in the cluster, each as their own volume.

Any thoughts on making the 4 drives addressable as one volume? 

Regards,

-Eric
