To the point, i found this computer build on a different threat on this site, i will only be using it for general gaming and downloading, however i download a lot of stuff and I've been learning but i'm still quite clueless when it comes to part compatibility, would somebody be able direct me to a 2TB HDD that would fit this build please?

I am also wondering if running windows 7 will create any hassles as i dislike windows 8 quite a lot.

Thanks in advance :)

I got you a Seagate Barricuda 2TB 7200 RPM 64 MB Cache HDD for your system :) And HDD is always compatible as long as the MOBO has SATA ports you are fine. I have an Archaic WD 320 GB 7200 RPM 32 MB cache running as a secondary storage in my system so you are good.
