You might want the Samsung 64gb SSD (put your Operating system on there for a faster boot) from amazon or newegg.

The WD Caviar Green is a 5400 rpm drive and is not a good choice as your primary hard drive. If you could use a SSD like Sloane suggested, that would be great, otherwise you need a HDD that spins at 7200 rpm.

My friend has offered to sell me his 64g SSD, and his motherboard, should be better now.
