Not addressing the points you are asking but more toward the original issue...
You can always buy a high-power used enterprise server for under $1k and shell out the $800 for windows server standard. I purchased a Dell new server for $10K for our company and it's worse then the $700 used Dell R710 that i bought.
With the money you save means you can buy a few for redundancy and replication purposes. I bought one very similar to this one.
I've been on both sides of the fence in IT as well. Worked for the company that supported the company that i work for serving break-fix services when we bought the new server. When I got hired on directly the first thing i did was buy a good used server for our second office, i regret not having the same one in our main office.
This is what I was considering for myself. It uses 3.5inch drives so I could use it as a NAS too.
