Question re: iSCSI capabilities of Terastation 5200

I'm looking at purchasing a Terastation 5200 4TB, and planning to connect it directly to a Windows 2008 R2 server. (SBS 2011 Standard)

 

I'm an iSCSI newb and haven't setup an iSCSI connection before, so pardon me if these questions are simple to the experts out there...

 

Q1 - can I direct connect the server to the NAS without putting a LACP capable switch in between?

Q2 - does this unit support MPIOto the Windows server?

Q3 - is there a different/better way to get 2Gbps between the server and the NAS than what I'm suggesting?

 

TIA,

 

Mike
