Configuring the Search Service across two servers could result in better performance, reduced redundancy, and increased reliability.

To achieve this there is a sea you need to cross. The sea here is the below article. Its a lengthy one but would help you configure search topology for one search service application with multiple search components across 2 servers for redundancy and performance.

Some tips:

* Configure all your search components to run on both servers, load balance them for user requests, and be sure you include index replicas and not just split the index across the two servers.

* Microsoft does not recommend to run the search services on the same server that is also hosting the distributed cache service.
