Seems to be a smallish SSD. My HTPC has an 80GB drive for my OS (Windows 7) and my Blu-Ray software (CyberPower DVD) and it's nearly full (Windows updates and such).

Yup windows 10 is around 10G when its installed than you have to download updates and drivers etc. And when you want to install some programs such as windows there is no space for that. just buy a 128GB You can get one for around 40/50 or a 256 for 70/80

I changed it to a 120GB SSD. It is just for my programs (UTorrent, VLC, etc.) and Windows 8 (I cant stand windows 10)
But everything else is good right? I dont need a video card, or more/less ram?

Well your good to go then and no you don't need a GPU the CPU has integrated graphics. But keep in mind you can't download to much!

Anyways good luck with your build!
