Rob, You might consider just doing a forklift upgrade. Build a new box, and put the same software on it.
For a windows based network, I have used Samba to provide a central file store before. If you want to go to a different backup solution, install crashplan.com free client on your machines and back them all up to one. (Mac, Windows, Linux, and more) I don't know of a 'Windows Media Server' equivalent, but I am sure there is something that does that well. I would guess looking at Myth, but that is just a guess as I don't use it. ><> ... Jack Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart...
