Hard Drive wise, I recommend:

Raptor(s) for OS and Games - NO RAID

Large SATA II, 16meg cache drives for media - RAID 5 if possible.
 
I don't understand the layout. Do you have 2 DVD burners and 3 video cards? Or are you using two cards in Crossfire and you aren't sure about one of the two cards?
 
I do have two DVD Burners, and I'm am indeed unsure about either one of them because of the Crossfire issue the other guy brought me, but he seems unable to back his argument up... So...

I suppose that SLI, to some, means using 2 video cards in sync. Kind of like Coke being used for all Coke-like drinks and Kleenex for tissues.

If you don't plan on setting up two cards in a Crossfire config, just go for the non-CF XT version. It's able to play all games at excellent res/settings. Going SLI/CF is, IMO, a waste of money since the increase in frames is low compared to the added cost.

Do you HAVE 2 burners or do you plan on GETTING 2?

The PSU's a little overkill, too, if you stay with one video card.
