You need two disks, obviously the mirrored disk must be same or larger than the disk you want to mirror.
You must convert your disks to Dynamic Disks and you can then setup a mirror per partition. This is software mirroring and will slow the disk access down somewhat.
If you do not want to loose any performance and have somewhat of a budget, you may want to invest in a hardware RAID-1 card. They now exist in IDE (ATA-RAID-1) versions also and not only in SCSI, but it will require you to build an array, which will mean re-installation of the O/S.

You can also use FRS to replicate data to another server. Using DFS you can manager your shares, replicate data to a share on another server, so that if server A goes offline clients are pointed to server B.
