1. Computer case that has decent cable management options
2. Motherboard
3. Processor
4. Memory
5. SSD/HDD Preferably an SSD
6. Power Supply
7. DVD Drive depending if you need to use CD's or not.
8. Windows OS/Activation Key
9. Video Card possibly if you do any type of decent gaming. Anything really light you can use onboard video through the processor.

You are probably talking about Raid 1 where you have at least 2 drives the same size with the same thing on each drive. If one drive fails you can still boot to the other and continue to use windows without loss of data. Motherboard would have to support raid and its simple to setup in the bios and then install windows to.

Raid would be setup through the bios first with your drives attached, setup the raid 1 array then boot to the windows install media and it should detect the array as 1 drive since raid 1 is designed to mirror original drive.

Doesn't sound like you are too familiar on what is needed to build a pc especially one with Raid. I would definitely outsource this to someone that knows what they are doing. Between building the pc and installing windows, I can usually have this done in a matter of an hour or so.

How much of a budget do you have? You get better quality parts when having someone build it for you compared to buying in a store but it will cheaper to buy the store bought one.

i build 4 computers ,they are runing,but the one started to have problem runing,i reset the windows and now is runing 2 month with out problem.
the second computer was runing good i shut that off and next day i try to start that and it did not wonet to go.i was thinking i will take that a part.i disaided i do that next day.next day i turn that on and everything work .then i reset the windows on second computer and it is runing good now.
that is giving me bug in head ,if i shoud find iff Raid 1 is beter then i7 regular computer.
i allways figure out good system, then i locate qualyty parts for cheepest price.
everything is changing and i did not keep up with technology,i have to learn what is best way to do that.i am runing 4 computers and 12 monitors every day from 7 am till 5 pm.
i am doing that if one computer has problem i can start the same program on second computer.

do you think i could run 12 monitors on Raid1,it would be more reliable ?
or beter run 4 computers sepert ?
i would like to learn how to diagnose all my computers if anything is failing.
my problem is,if i have problem with computer,some how i fix that,then i say i have to diagnose all computers to prevent problem,but i never do till next problem.
now is no more excuse,i have to do that
if i have babysiter i can do anything.

if there was list
1 install win 10 pro
2 make backup,i do not know if i need backup or i can simply install win 10 pro from instalation disk,or i have to backup every my program.then install win 10 pro and instal program backup.
i was doing backup few times,then i got lost where is what,then i stop duing that,then i reset the computers and i have no idea where is what,the backup program upgrade and it change how it look and i am lost,now i am afraid to create problem,then i leave that alone,but that is no good.

Raid 1 has nothing to do with how many monitors you can run, its all about what video card and how many is required. Why do you need to run 12 monitors?

i run 3 or 4 defrent programs,each monitor has1 desktop 4 workspaces,and every workspace has 2 charts.
if power go off i do not lose anything,even if i am down with problem i do not loose or miss anything.
only problem if computer stop working how to make that work.
i realize Raid 1 would not have advantige for me.
only what i wory how to make computers in best shape,how to make proper backup if i have to install win 10 pro from scratch.
