First post, never used Linux before, but have been building my own PCs for a long time.
I am a budding photographer and am starting to gather a good number of photos, which I do want to keep safe. Thus far I have backed them up on two drives, but they are all on location in my flat. So I decided it was time to build myself a small backup server which I will be putting into a good friend's or my mother's flat. I might want to use it for some other small things other than simple backups, but that's in the future.
Backup software will be either BackupPC or Unison Backup, file system ZFS with Raid-Z1.
The server will be built using these parts: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/jj7WpG
Now to my question: Which Ubuntu version to use in my use case?
I suppose I would want the LTS version, but should I go for Desktop or Server version, and why?
Thank you very much for your support!

It sounds like you won't normally have a monitor attached to this server. This means you probably want the Server version which doesn't come with desktop packages like Gnome.
If you decide you want to switch later on, the Server and Desktop versions are basically the same OS with different packages so it is trivial.
