Okay experts, tell me what you think of this setup. I'm building a computer for mostly web surfing, downloading music and video and some video and music editing. Thanks for the input.

Fine setup to me, but instead of a 74 GB/10,000 RPM hd, I would just get like a 200 or 250GB/7,200 RPM

Most definitely. If you're storing video and crap, 74GB ain't gonna cu tit for very long

I plan on using the 10K RPM for storing programs and such for the speed and I'll end up getting one or two 7200 RPM, 200 or 250G to store video, etc. Does that sound reasonable?
Thanks.

setup good, and NEWEGG rules, and yea that sounds reasonable, 200Gb is more than enough to store video and music, or atleast for me it would be.

Just a single drive is all that is needed. I'll probably get another one or two down the road. Right now, I'm just tring to get the basic set up. :rolleyes: And, I know, there's always a price factor. The second link didn't come up.
