I’m guessing the server is equipped with SSD:s? Back in the day I omce setup a local website and forgot to rotate session files created by PHP. Cost me a hard drive that did.
Are you building your website from scratch or do you intend using some platform? What kind of bandwidth do you have?
My bandwidth is 1Gb/s for each Ethernet port, but I'm using my ISP's router so I don't think it's the best, unfortunately. In the sense that, sure each port is 1Gb/s but if 1 port consumes that 1Gb/s, all the others will be throttled (even though the router supports "Up to 10Gb/s").
I haven't decided yet, but I'm probably going to use Astro[1]; lots of beautiful themes and easy set up.

I’m unfamiliar with Astro unfortunately so can’t really say too much about it.
What kind of speed do you get from your ISP? You get good latency?
Just did a speedtest on Fast.com and got 1Gbps download, 950Mbps upload and 0ms unloaded and 33ms loaded. Granted, that's not on my server.
1gps/1gps is my wet dream. The house I live in is tied into a pretty shitty ISP, didn’t know that though until after I bought the place. You live and you learn, someday I too will have a setup this beautiful.
Sorry I couldn’t be of any real help :)
No worries, if you have any questions I'd be happy to help :)
