There are pro's and con's for the two systems I don't think there is much difference in cost between the two.

With two motors you will need two homing switches and a controller that can do the slaving correctly and also have the alarm outputs on the drives working in case one motor stalls and then the other will rack the system.

Dean (Jazzcnc) usually uses one motor but I think on the machine he is now using it has two.
I use two motors and I am happy with it.
