Does the 2008 version of SBS "Officially" support teamed NICs?
 
I know it is not officially supported in 2003.  But I use two or more LAN side NICs in all my servers now, and in my humble opinion it is by far the cheapest way to get a real throughput performance boost.

I use it too in 2003, and it works like a charm. Especially since it's more a driver option then something that has to do with SBS.
Even VLAN's work, but SBS doesn't like the multiple networks you get.

I really hope 2008 supports multiple interfaces, so I can have multiple networks on my machine.

I was also wondering this. I'm about to order a Dell PowerEdge T300 which apparently has dual Broadcom NIC's built-in. Can I connect both NIC's to the switch in order to provide greater throughput or allow for one to be redundant?

Cheers.
