Making 2 servers connect to eachother?

If I were to rent 2 servers from a datacenter, one of them having a raid array with alot of hard drives, would it be possible for the other server to read from the raid array? like if i were running a file site and needed server A acting as a web server to redirect users to download the file from server B with the raid array

many thx

Um - do you mean besides using the usual networking file referencing methods? e.g. "\\serverA\files\foo.jpg"

Which operating system(s) are they using?

Is it not possible to simply map the driver in the designated operating system?
