Basic Storage and Lun Question

if  we have 16 Disks on EMC and if we want to create LUNs, how many LUNs we can create? Also, When we create Lun, does it needs to be on same disk or can I create LUN from Disk1 and Disk2?

Thank you very much. If I understand corretly, once I have created the raid group, then I can create lun from there. It doesn't care about what disk it is using.
