Do most people running servers really want / need an optical disk? As

Have you considered OpenBSD? Security is their top priority.

I would say a server is any piece of software or hardware that serves data to
other devices.
I have run an apache2/mariadb/php server from an old laptop with a headless LTS
Linux for over two years without issue.
Surely you aren't saying only a rack mounted 64 core monstrosity with a TB of
ram
Depends on what you're trying to do.
I run a small domain on a T1 without pictures or audio, so I'm using a
Raspberry Pi 3 as a server. Quite a bit faster than the old PDP-11s the
'Net started out with, and significantly less expensive. And smaller.
My domain used to be a lot larger, but still a

When I read server hardware I understand also server hardware. It has many

Perhaps you are right about usb 2.0. And the Olimex A64-OLinuXino does seem
like a solid option otherwise.
I wasn't able to verify which usb the Olimex A64-OLinuXino had. It didn't
specifically say on the specs page. And the github link for the schematic seems
to be broken.

Thanks for the reply. Those seem like options to consider. The pre-orders for
the helios4 seem to be sold out for now.
