---- Best use of funds for upgrade server components

I have a very basic Dell R200 Poweredge. It's done the job very well but is now sweating and thrashing, especially during backups. I need to spend some money on it.

It only has 2 Gigs of memory. I'll surely be upgrading that.
It has a Pentium Dual-Core CPU E5400 @ 2.70GHz

It's got 2 HDDs... On one HDD is a fairly busy forum (100,000 + unique visits per month) and on the other is Piwik analytics.

It's running CentOS 5.8 with WHM/cPanel.

Could you please suggest some targetted upgrades that won't break the bank... we've got a baby due in March and finances are a bit tight at this time... Thanks.
