I would get this hard drive instead

Newegg.com - Western Digital Caviar Black WD1001FALS 1TB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive - Internal Hard Drives

This a new hard drive from WD that have only three platters, and 32MB cache. And I heard that it is the fastest 7200RPM HDD on market

seems like a great hard drive, but the samsung is £50 cheaper $100 dollars

will also be getting a raptor hd, and will be using the 1TB purley for storage.

Did you check eBuyer or Overclockers or Scan.co.uk for those PSU's I mentioned above?
