Hello! I am thinking of getting one of those i7 2 x 3 TB Hetzner server, for only €26.05++ only. One problem is its on System Rescue mode and i when install ubuntu it will be kinda challenging for me setting it up. But im sure i will find a way, but to save up time i need some of your help.

Is the following possible:
1. Using it as seedbox by installing rutorrent.
2. Using plex on it.
3. Installing Ubuntu MATE on it so it will be easier for me cause i will have a GUI
4. How long does this usually take to set up, you can put my ubuntu knowledge to 4/10.
5. Is Ubuntu 16.04 the best OS for this??

Any suggestions / opinions about this is welcome. Please let me know.
