server build plz

[natsuu]

could someone put together for me a server build around 500-1000$ and one at 500$

[gtx1060=value]

what type of sever? storage? network speeds? etc

what is it going to be used for? you dont just have a "server", a server is something you dedicate to a task and is made for that task. while it may do sevral tasks it can not do all of them and thats why we need to know what you need your server for

You need to be more specific, without knowing your requirements/ aims it's impossible to know what to suggest.

Why do you need remote desktop to do paperwork.

Something like DropBox sounds like it would serve your needs better.

than you should simply encrypt the files before you upload them to dropbox, in terms of reliability almost any known cloud provider will be better than having a single server at home.

What kind of confidential? Confidential usually means pretty important. What are your plans for backups?

RAID 1 is not a backup.
