CPU wont work with that motherboard, its am2+, you need an am3 cpu, as the am2+ cpu's do not have an on die ddr3 memory controller.

I would recommend the Western Digital Black series of hard drives. The green series has all kinds of power saving stuff built in it.

You can read about the 3 different drives here

The 1TB Black is $10 more and you'll be better off with a faster hard drive.
