>I am building specs for a new server to replace my 3 year-old NT4.0 server which has a 5GB HD and and Iomega 1Gig Jazz internal SCSI and Ultrabac backup software.

You may also want to consider the following alternatives:
Hard-disks are currently one of the cheapest options per GB. Re-usable, too. You can make them removable with a "disk-rack", but if you don't have a "hot-swappable" system, you have to restart your computer.
Another option you can consider (even cheaper per GB, but not as re-usable) is a CD writer. Some can be written only once, some more than once.
