All eggs one basket etc will mean you might be better off getting two smaller servers (or small 1U servers that wont cost much) and have a reslliance. So if you lost one your other take over the tasks.

Just food for thought…….

But Active Directory / DHCP / DNS / BACKUPS / Proxy / system management / file share / Print services / and anything else you might need.
