Sounds more like it's setup on a SAN..  a NAS is a different type of unit
like a NetApp filer.

I'd have to agree with the other poster, I'm not sure your current config

A more typical setup would be that both boxes should have their own
unique SAN partitions, and a high speed network connection between them.
Setup some replication and your good to go.
