Not trying to be a Linux zealot here, but any reason why you are using windows over linux or a bsd for this machine?
Course I do not know if Linux has support for the Raid hardware you have, that could be an issue.
But for a file server Linux does a GREAT job, samba I have found is better in some repects than a windows smb machine. More options for auth. is one.
Again, I do not know your full needs.
