Right now, my worry is the reliability of the parts, especially with the hard drive and the motherboard.
And can somebody recommend me a good SSD I can use instead of that one, preferably a SATA III to take advantage of my MOBO?

Only thing I don't like in your setup is your mobo only takes 1333/1066 speed RAM. Not a biggie though.
Looks good to me though. I personally like OCZ SSDs, check em out

How about this Mobo? http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1165562&Sku=G452-1047

supports 1866 and 2133 - that's good, Z68 chipset - thats good, supports RAID arrays if your looking for better performance out of your HDDs and redundancy - thats good. All looks good to me. The CM V8 is a pretty sweet cooler

I would get a 7200RPM drive, even though its only for storage. Would be much faster.

I'm gonna use newegg, because I find tigerdirect's website terrible for finding exact things.

Better power supply for $5 more:

If you don't go modular, you can get a 850w way cheaper, and just hide the cable behind your case with the cable management.
