Lookes like Hillary was way ahead of the game by having her own server since State Dept was hacked

on more than one occasion. No evidence that her server was hacked. Those using official servers and communicating with her were hacked. Maybe Hillary is smarter than the experts...or at least her computer gurus are.

There seems to be much more angst about Hillary's un-hacked server than over Snowden and Assange and Russia over their actual hacking.

Didn't Kerry try to upgrade the State Department servers?

If he did, more power to him.

It was smart to wipe it after she was done with it, but how much could anyone tell after that?

The FBI tried to piece together fragments of e-mails that were left after the wiping, but they had real trouble with that.

How could they find evidence that it had been hacked or not?

I don't know anything about computers, so perhaps you could educate me.
