Hi this is what I am looking to buy. Do not want to go over $800, but don't mind going cheaper unless the performance goes down a lot.

Caviar Black WD6401AALS is a faster drive for a few bucks more.

Might want to add a DVDRW (unless you have one from previous system).

Otherwise looks like a mighty quick build for not too much cash.
