Thanks for the quick reply.

well, how does a Maxtor Basics STM305004N1AAAS-RK 500GB Hard Drive - 7200, 16MB, Serial ATA-300, Retail look?and if so, would I need the SDD one? the reason i ask is it seems a bit complicated, and all that symlinking sounds confusing. if this hard drive is good enough the 500gb would be more then enough for the rougly 50gb for 5 directories, with a ton of room left over for other apps, not to mention its the exact same price (maybe a bit less).

and really, these are the only parts i would need to build my PC other then the sound card, and DVD/CD Burner correct?

for the DVD/CD Burner im thinking Sony DRU-V200S/BR DVD Rewritable Drive SATA - 20x DVD±R, 8x DVD+RW, 6x DVD-RW, 8x DVD+R DL, 12x DVD-R DL, 12x DVD-RAM, 16x DVD-ROM, 48x CD-R, 32x CD-RW, 48x CD-ROM, Black, its pretty cheap since i wont be using it a whole lot unless im installing my WoW, or some FPS.

as for the sound card, I have absolutely no clue. I dont want crappy sound but i dont wanna be spending $200 on one either. TurtleBeach 7.1/5.1 Audio Advantage SRM looks alright but its external and im looking for one that I can put inside.

after all that I think all i will need is a case (Correct me if im wrong) and then im on my way. :love:
