Several server models would work for you - all of them will support more than 32GB, and anything x430 and above should have an option to support the number of 4TB or 6TB drives needed to reach 24TB of storage. Tower vs rackmount depends entirely on what you have for physical infrastructure (Do you have a rack? Is the noise level important? Etc.) and preference.
You should be considering RAID 6 or 60 for that kind of storage. RAID 5 should NOT be used, and RAID 10 will probably be insufficient as well, not to mention more expensive to implement.
