Nice motherboard and CPU! EVGA's and Intel's products are great!

Consider two of these types of disks in RAID 1 installed in the computer for the CAD, and additional external storage, also in RAID 1 for project work storage.

OR

You can have additional HDDs in RAID 1 or RAID 1+0 (different from RAID 0+1) for the external storage.

More info on RAID here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAID

(Note: I have listed the Newegg links. Get the same drives from your favorite source).
