DUO X2 in MP 5.1 -> Dual Boot OS X + Windows 8 confirmed
Still WON'T work in MP 3,1!
Just received my (test) MP 5.1 2012 12c @ 2.66 Ghz.
Very excited, but first things first because I never got any feedback from Apricorn Engineers about the DUO X2 in a MP 5.1...
Moved both my OS X 10.9.3 (13D65) SSD EVO 1TB (Jumper1) & Windows 8 Pro x64 SSD EVO 500GB (Jumper2) and I can 100% confirm that both OS's can be booted from the DUO X2!
Code:

MSI: Yes
Bus: PCI
Slot: Slot-2
Vendor ID: 0x1b4b
Device ID: 0x9230
Subsystem Vendor ID: 0x1b4b
Subsystem ID: 0x9230
Revision ID: 0x0011
Link Width: x2
Link Speed: 5.0 GT/s
OS X: booted with not one glitch
The Macintosh HD is the original Apple 512GB SSD that came with the MP 5.1.
Windows: needed to update the hardware, but after that it rebooted flawless.
When Im done extensive testing the MP 5.1, I'll will ofcourse test the DUO X2 icw the SOLO X2:
DUO X2 -> RAID0 OSX
SOLO X2 -> RAID0 Wndows
and visa-versa.
Keep you updated.
I'll be phoning with M$ (after testing) for a new key for my Windows 8 that I moved from the MP 3.1 to the MP 5.1 as it is now not activated anymore.
