Have you allready installed windows on that box?  How commited are you
to that install if you have?

Assuming you don't mind rebuilding it I'd look into hosting your
windows install under linux. VMWare, Xen or KVM (the new vt not
keyboard video monitor switch).  Your coreDuo supports the nessary
instructions for fast Xen and KVM and you've got enough memory and
disk space/speed to bring you very close to the feel of a native
install.

Don't forget on raid0, single disk fail = whole array dead.  Other
than that you seem to have a great box for doing this.
