Hi, I’ve reviewed your requirements and can deliver a secure, centralized IT infrastructure using your existing Dell PowerEdge R320 and R210 servers. My plan includes setting up Windows Server 2022 with Hyper-V to host isolated VMs for RDS, file sharing, email (Postfix/Dovecot), web hosting, and a Document Management System (NextCloud or OwnCloud). I’ll configure secure Remote Desktop Services for your 5 laptops, integrate spam and virus filtering for email, set up a user-friendly DMS with AD authentication, and implement a multi-layer backup strategy with both local and encrypted cloud storage for minimal ongoing costs. Security measures will include VPN access, 2FA, firewall, and encryption to protect all data. The estimated monthly operating cost will be in the $25–$60 range, mainly covering electricity and low-cost cloud backups, with most software being open-source or already owned. I can complete the setup, testing, and documentation in about 10 days, and will ensure it’s ready for future scalability and minimal maintenance.
