Ya thats great, will be a really nice system.

You would be way better off getting a 1tb Seagate Barracuda or 1tb Western Digital Caviar Blue - I've had nothing but bad experience with Hitachi, Samsung and Fujitsu

I agree about the Hitachi and Fujitsu. But the new Samsung F3 anf F4 drives are fine.

Iheard that they have bad blocks in them.

im going with the Western Digital 1 TB Caviar Green SATA II 64 MB Cache Bulk/OEM Desktop Hard Drive

No not really, not anymore then any other drive.

If your going with W/D as your main get a Black drive, not a Green. A Green is good for a storage drive.
