With that type of load that server would be ample. Maybe buy an additional network card and configure fail over between the cards... Something to consider is what is your expected growth over the lifetime of this server. If you depreciate the servers cost to 0 in 3 years time and expect to replace it then, and the amount of traffic in 3 years time will not be significantly higer then stick with that. Otherwise bump your ram and have a look a getting a quick disk system.
