I already have a samsung pro 850 500 GB SSD. Bought it last month for the build I'm currently running.

The cooling system is what I want with the case.


Was just wondering if everything else checks out to be good.

I was told by a lot of people that seagate was a faulty HD and WD/hitachi is a lot better. How true is that?

Everything else I picked out seems good, right?

they're practically the same shit,
just nerds fanboyin it up with hearsay.
1tb HDD are all relatively close, get the WD and if it fails ur gonna be 1 of those guys suggesting hitachi/seagates better and vice versa

hitachi are reliable but they're louder, WD blacks are awesome for warranty and shit, but both these drives are pricey compared to blues and bara's

nope, as the case comes with it.
Though i'd personally get it customized if ur willing to spend $$$ on serious water cooling
using that case can have problems, it's hard to tell if your components will fit w/o problems and have great airflow w/ cable managment

Yeah I was looking at that. I'll stick to the original cooling system and case I got.

Should I buy cables or am I good to go?
