Can do NAT with cisco 3750X ?

Hi expert,

I need to do a small lab setup within my company.  My small department will have about 20 staff .  Then i will also have a small Data centre which host around 20x servers.  I will like to have my own assign private IP addresses for my servers.  Therefore ,  I believe i might need NAT internally.

I have attached a network diagram , which shown the Layer 3 ( 3750x) to do NAT .  
Appreciate if any expert can advise , is this correct way to do NAT ???

No. The 3750 can't do NAT.

Hi Tee , Don

If based on your recommendation to do NAT at the distribution switch ( Cat6509 ).  
Meaning to say I do not req the Layer 3 switch ( 3750X ) ?

And also allow the Access switches,  behind  Layer 3 switch ( 3750X) to connect directly to distribution swtich (cat6509) ?  Probably to have individual uplink from each access to distribution.

Because I might have total 5x access switches (3560X) to support all the severs .  Not shown in the diagram ,  for VLAN 10 to VLAN 70.
