i've used / configured backuppc servers; minimal configuration was:
- mini-itx with 1Ghz VIA CPU;
- 1 GB ram;

When possible OS (Debian) installed in
- DOM (disk on module);

When possible, more SATA channels with:
- PCI Sata controller;

When possible:
- RAID1 disk configuration;

With minimal configuration, medium network bandwidth usage (form
BackupPC host status panel) was less than 5 Mb/s.
I see that higher CPU Ghz guarantee better value.

Regards
