The question is a bit mis-leading. When you create storage on the array, you then assign that storage to a host. In order to create a 2TB of storage that the host can see would involve creating a Raid Group first - and using two drives would entail getting two drives that together would equal 2TB of storage.

On the Clariion arrays (when you ask a question on the forum you need to provide the details for the array model - is this a clariion CX or CX3 or CX4) using two drives would allow you to create either a 2 drive Raid 0 (no data protection) - this is a stripped raid group where you add the capacity of the two disks together. So take two very large disks - each would need to be more than 1TB as there is capacity that is used by the array that would not be available for user capacity.

You need to provide more detail on the array model/type and the drives that you want to use.
