Mac Mini + Thunderbolt Display+ Additional Display

displaymac-minithunderbolt-display

I just purchased a 2012 Mac Mini to use with my Apple Thunderbolt Display.

The mini also included an HDMI to DVI converter. I have a DVI-connected ViewSonic montior that I'd like to use as a secondary display. Is it possible to use the HDMI-out port as a secondary monitor output?

Like so: (excuse the horrible art)

     Thunderbolt Port          HDMI Port
