If the claims are true that the microRendu is immune to network noise, many on the microRendu thread are suggesting using a simple Belden CAT6A cable from Blue Jeans cable because of the superior shielding that this inexpensive cable utilizes.
Because I already own an SOtM dCBL CAT-6 cable ($170) with SOtM iSO-CAT 6 LAN isolation filter ($350), it would be a shame not to use them, especially as I have verified their effectiveness. Of the two, however, I will say that the SOtM dCBL CAT 6 cable has the greater benefit and I wouldn't miss the ISO-CAT 6 LAN isolation filter if I didn't have it.
Even more effective and less expensive is optical LAN isolation (about $100). The parts to buy are detailed here:

Again, all of this might be overkill with the microRendu but I would say that for $100, there's little to lose with getting optical isolators.
As for my server, I have one of these on order. I ordered one with a 2TB SSD card so that I don't have to deal with a NAS. In a few months, 4TB SSDs will be released and so there is a nice upgrade path that will soon be available for when I outgrow 2TB of storage. It appears you don't use Roon which is what makes this server particularly attractive to me but you can use JRiver with it as well:
