It is not clear for me please answer:
I need to put my MBPro far from my table (in another room and use it in mode with closed lid) but TB cables can be only 1,5 metres long

Is it possible to use 2 MINI display cables instead of TB cables to connect 2 newest Apple displays to my MB Pro this way:

MacBookPro ----> AppleCinemaDisplay1 connected with Minidisplay cable to MBPro -----> AppleCinemaDisplay2 connected with MiniDisplay cable (to TB port of Display1)?

or

MacBookPro --> TB HDD Raid connected with TB cable ---> AppleCinemaDisplay1 connected with minidisplay cable to the TB port of HDDRaid -----> AppleCinemaDisplay2 connected with minidisplay cable to the TB port of Display1
