If you use the Unity to provide block Storage to more than one server they need to run a cluster file system. A Windows NTFS is not cluster ready one. Your data is in danger right now!!!!
Windows can use CSV.
You Unity can also run as a "Filer" which provides Shares in the same way a Windows Fileserver will do.

Hello mallesh.ch1,
Are the servers in a cluster or are they standalone? Based on what you stated in your post I am guessing that they are standalone. For what you are wanting to do it is best to have the servers in a cluster, so that both servers can access the same data.
