The MB will probably be an ASUS P4P800 SE. I'm looking for ~160GB 7200RPM that is reliable and doesn't run too hot. Won't be doing serious gaming, so IDE is fine, though SATA is fine too if it's more reliable/cooler.

TIA!!

Any 160GB hard drive will be fine. Look for the cheapest one.

Samsung, Hitachi(formerly IBM), Seagate, Maxtor, WD ... they all make quality hd's. There are a few exceptions and occasionally a hard drive will go bad, but generally, they're all pretty much the same.
