Here's something else to consider.  I was using the Windows 10 box with MS Office and TurboTax to feed my weather station to the Weather Underground web site.  I needed it to stay online 24/7 to do this but Windows 10 will download and install updates and reboot even if I turn updates off.  Highly annoying.  I ended up using a Raspberry Pi with Linux as the weather server and it stays up for months at a time now.

Bottom line: if you need a server, use Linux not Windows home or pro editions.
