Hiya, I just had a question on the NIC teaming in 2012 server.
Does it increase bandwidth in addition to load balancing and failover?
I also assume that you would need like a SSD to test and see how fast it goes?(I tried it with a SSD on one end and 7200 disk on another and got a bit over 100mbps)

I think I was a bit vague. :) I guess what I am wondering is the bandwidth doubled on 1gb switch, to 2gb(~200mbps)?

When you team the nic you get a virtual nic. Depending on the mode it can either pool the bandwidth and make one fast nic or you can have a nic for fault tolerance.
 
According to Microsoft it does. Are you configuring the switch dependent or independent team? I would suggest using iperf or ntttcp from Microsoft to test network performance.
