Building a linux server on a desktop board is certainly possible. Remember that the board is still a desktop board, and if you have chosen a board that is not long-term reliable, running Linux on it will do nothing to change that situation. (Not that many desktop boards or chipsets are unreliable these days, but the possibility cannot be excluded.)

Hmm, so that is 500-600 in some currency and you intend to pay those prices in some area of the world. It doesn't tell us much, but it may be possible. Or not, depending on currency.

What for? You want this stuff just for backup, or is there something else involved? And are you saying that you want to run eg, thin client machines, off the same box and at the same time, or is that mention of windows to support the backup application in some way?
