Which Windows version / Raid 0 1

-

dear all,
my client has 12 users (engineers); windows 7 ultimate.
the server hold company data; users' pcs hold personal data.
i more familiar windows 7 windows server.. 
a-
scenario 1: install windows 7 on server.. hold data , give specific authorization users.
scenario 2: install windows server on server.. hold data , create users.
b-
server has raid 0 1 onboard , 3x 1tb. interested in mirroring keep data safe.
is there procedure follow in order have raid 1 / mirroring?
which windows version (ultimate or server) should go in order have raid 1 (mirroring) operational?
thanx lot
joe

both w7 ultimate , windows server support software mirroring. if raid config handled hardware, make sure driver intended operating system exists, if hardware handles raid, mirror exposed single drive windows. (with hardware might have option define 3rd drive hotspare)

with 12 users, id suggest going windows server. in theory can install win7 on "company file server" , share storage there in workgroup (afaik 20 concurrent sessions 64k open files limit in w7), though server give option create domain, reduce time spend on managing users (centralized) among other added features
