With the MD3000i, it looks like I might be able to simply connect the two servers directly.

You can cable from the Ethernet ports of your host servers directly to your MD3000i RAID controller

iSCSI ports. Direct attachments support single path configurations (for up to four servers) and dual path

data configurations (for up to two servers) for both single and dual controller modules.

However, I would probably want to go with at least one dedicated 1GB switch, in case I add more ESXi servers in the future. The MD3000i can support up to 16 physical hosts.
