#1 Why do you think the server was physically located in her house? By the time you see it, if you ever see it, it will have been thoroughly scrubbed.

#2 Server: noun. A miraculous machine that miraculously stores every file or email that passes thru it without miraculously deleting the incriminating ones.

#3 Well, I bet I know who they'll pick to look for incriminating messages on that server:

#5 Hard drives in question have likely already been degaussed, disassembled and thermite treated. All backups (tape and otherwise) done the same. There will be no evidence.

#6 I wonder if you might consider the manufacture date of the server to a avoid being duped by rewrite. I have to believe she is sweating bullets about who hacked and what power that might give over her. That she has sent flacks out to argue her defense is vintage Clinton but betrays a weakness, she cannot argue persuasively about why she did this and cannot take the heat of direct, adversarial questioning. A fatal flaw when she must debate.

#7 If parts of the drive end up being wiped that would look hideously bad. Unless you're a liberal, in which case it wouldn't matter.

#8 The drive will have been replaced. Any data found thereon will be plain-Vanilla pablum.

#9 Look for an 18-minute gap.

#10 If she's wiped her servers that will only slow the investigation marginally and will likely prove incriminating rather quickly.

Consider:

Many of the messages to / from her servers will probably have .gov senders / recipients and will thus have passed through federal servers presumably subject to our records laws. No reason to believe that those aren't archived and therefore discoverable via queries on the federal side for to / from addresses.

Similarly since we now know quite a few email addresses she was utilizing and because email tends to generate call / response type communications in which the call is often quoted back as part of the response complete with the original message headers (and sender's email address) there's reason to believe that searches of the bodies of archived communications in various agencies for her various email aliases would turn up a good but of data as well.

The above would take a few minutes in the private sector so let's allow the bureaucracy a half-day. Cross-reference whatever is found on the federal side vs what the Hildebeeste coughs up and whatever is recovered from her servers and there won't be enough beer and popcorn on the planet to last through the hilarity that will ensue as she attempts to explain the gaps.

Yes, they could have taken steps to cover her tracks but a) I don't think the Clintons are that savvy / careful; b) it would take a monumental effort to educate the troops and enforce that sort of discipline across the board; and c) those sorts of activities leave tracks and raise questions of their own.
