Is this a good minecraft server build?

http://pcpartpicker.com/p/37gyYJ I wanted to start a minecraft server and I wanted to know if this was a good enough computer to host around 1000-2000 people without lag.

You don't need that much storage, instead bump up the RAM to ECC and get a motherboard that supports ECC RAM. One SSD will suffice fine. It won't really be the server that is the bottleneck - more so your internet connection - are you sure it'll be able to handle 2000 people pinging it repeatedly? Is your internet connection basically DDoS proof? Also, what is the upload speed of it - will it be able to handle transmitting a large minecraft world quickly enough over the internet?

Oh. And spend the money for a better PSU. I wouldn't trust $2000 on that, and the power efficiency will get you in the end.

ComputerSecurityGuy :

Too true. If your budget allows it, splurge on a redundant one to ensure your server isn't brought down by a simple PSU failure.
