The poster above has solid advice, but also, and I cannot stress this enough. Virtualize if possible. Even the Windows hypervisor is free with Windows server, or professional now, so just do it. Once your server is a flat file that can be backed up, moved, etc. You will never again need to stress about a hardware upgrade or change. I run my server on esxi which is also free as long as you use the standard version and don't run vcenter.
