Servers are usually just deviations from regular PCs. Usually, the server boards take more RAM and occasionally more than one CPU. Sometimes servers that are used for storage might have a bunch of SATA ports. There isn't really a 'book' as much regarding server hardware, and there isn't really any wiring. Building a server is similar in almost every way to building a PC - same procedures, same precautions. Alot of PCs will take Server 2003 and run as a domain controller/member server, and most servers will take Windows and work as a workstation, the only difference between the two is compatibility of software, and occasionally drivers (e.g. server hardware might not be supported under client OS and visa versa.)
