Very nice build. with a system that nice i"m surprised you didn't plan an ssd as a OS drive though. maybe scrap one of the HDD to put in the SSD and when enough money put in another 1tb drive? or just load as is then upgrade to an ssd later, they really make the system much mroe responsive

why do you need 2 1 tb drives?
