The answer to you question is very subjective to the rest of the hardware and environment. Switches, SAN, How many NICS, etc. Generally Speaking for a production environment you need multiple NICS and switches for redundancy and Jumbo Frames turned on if all your hardware supports them. Then there's MPIO on the iSCSI connector you can play with.

I'm wondering what is the best NIC configuration on the iSCSI target for best performance of the iSCSI traffic. ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
