Build looks good, for a HD look at Seagate and the 320 is the best bang for the buck right now ($/G). I used the asus P5K in my current build and am pretty happy with it but I hear good things about gigabyte also so wont tell you to change As for forgetting stuff, you should probably throw a burner in there to load up your operating system . Lite-on are good, go with SATA on both HD and burner, and get retail burner so you get the free software. Oh, and an OS is needed also unless you already have one around the house.
