The last item is singularly ill-advised. A single 2 TB hard drive is a
single point of failure. A suitable RAID based config is the way to go, if
opting for a server class system. It is worthwhile to note that the
*usable* space on a RAID system will depend on its configuration.

BTW, an AMD Opteron based server would equally deliver on the tasks you
expect Koha to perform on it, for considerably lower price point.

 cheers
