iSCSI and switch high availability

Hi
Could you advice me what switches should I use to provide high availability please? I would like to spend as less money as possible.
I want to use 4xDL380 G5 (as Hyper-V hosts and clustering) with 2xNIC on each (working in team) for iSCSI network. Servers are connected to two switches. Every NIC from team plugged to different switch. I’m going to use DELL MD3000i with two controllers (4 ports) connected to the some switches. Everything to eliminate single point of failure (NICs and Switches).
And just in case (I know we can’t use teaming for Hyper-V) maybe someone found solution for high availability for public Hyper-V network similar like for iSCSI network?
Best Regards
