10GB SAN with 1GB switch?

Hi there,

I've been asked to install the below :-

• EQL Ps4210x
• 2x Dell r430 (with 1GB NICs)
• 2x N2024 switches (iscsi)

My concern is that we would be using a 10GB SAN with a 1GB switch (and 1GB NICs on the server). 

My colleague said the Equallogic can connect to the 10GB uplink ports on the switch but the servers will only be able to connect to the server at 1GB,

I'd be interested to hear if this is considered good practise - I don't like the sound of it!
