Load Balancing Recommendation for NetApp Controller with HP A5820X switch

When I go to configure the 10gb ports on the NetApp controller (2 per controller), should I set them up as multi links (all ports active) or LACP (network switch manages traffic)? If I set them up as multi – what load balancing style would you recommend (IP, MAC, round-robin, or port based)? I’m only looking for your recommendations as they pertain to how the HP switch functions – not for NetApp specific performance recommendations.
