Thanks for the advice. I've learned a bit over the last few days. The computer
store I purchased my old workstation no longer has retired corporate
workstations on sale, they're all gone and they have no idea when they'll be
doing another auction run. 

So, currently I'm thinking of building a PI rig with a 4tb drive and run the
system on that. Also searching through amazon for fair priced retired
workstations. My firewall is built on one. My email server is my
mother-in-law's old home computer. My cloud server is possibly the last desktop
I'll ever build from scratch. But I think a PI rig may be cheaper than a
retired desktop.

Anyhoo, options options. Have you heard of bbbs.net?
