Yes the model 20 can be used to host the MPEXL_SYSTEM_VOLUME_SET,
including LDEV 1 (boot device). This would remove the need to buy
Mirror/iX, which only works on User Volumes anyway.

It seems that some, if not all, Model 20 disk arrays are going off HP
support "soon". Be sure to verify the exact date for end-of-support
before you go investing in one.
