Purchase solid equipment and fairly current machines.
We buy referbished system at a fraction of the cost of new.
For example;
IBM 3650 with 8 x 300g SAS drives and controller, 4 slot dual with the following specs. 16 gb memory.
model name : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5345 @ 2.33GHz
cache size : 4096 KB
This will probably cost ~ between $5000 & $8000
Set the drives up raid 1 and 5 for os/logs and data and global hotspare. Some prefer raid 10 if you have lots of drives.
This should give you 300g for os/logs and 600g for data.
