You can get a second-hand, that is, used laptop and use that as a server. The hard drive can be connected using an adapter through USB.
Comment on Server box just died, recommendations for a new one?

A used Lenovo think centre could be a good replacement IMO (they take SODimm, aka laptop ram, just check DDR3 or DDR4) and usually accepts two sticks + a nvmy & a 2.5 HD and usually with lots of usb & ports for screen(s). They come in all types of prices but usually seems to be sturdy and long lived.
