These callers that were recorded, were not the ones trying to leverage the hacked server, but rather just dialed the number and were routed through it.

I have a team of DevOps engineers available for tasks such as 24x7 monitoring and response to outages, or a scalable DevOps team available as part time, or scaled up to a full team.

4 x 208v 30A circuits gives a total of 120A -- of which they can only be used at 80% capacity, so that gives you 96A usable -- without redundancy.
My initial feelings (eyeballing it) are you should be looking for 3 full racks, 2x208V@30A in each.
As a juniper shop, we implemented the 2xQFX 5100 48T (in virtual chassis) + ex4300 for remote access per rack. This will be a decision based on your local expertise though.
I also looked hard into the twin boxes -- but power to the rack in the end ruled the day, and it made not much of a difference to use the 1U boxes.
Don't forget about out of band (serial for the switching gear). We've been using OpenGear.com for this stuff with 4G-LTE builtin.
VPN access to access console devices?
Any site-to-site VPN needs?
Also, I would consider not pre-purchasing N times your required horsepower/disk if you can avoid it, but rather add in pre-planned yearly, or biannually stages.
As the CEO of a cloud hosting & server management company -- I have much more to say about this if you would like to chat via phone or email anytime.

You can also use https://r1softstorage.com/ and receive storage + R1soft license (block based incremental backups) -- or just purchase the $5/month license from them and use storage where you want.
At https://mnx.io (my company) we offer various options with reliability, and performance at our foundation.
$15/TB -- scalable to 40T.
