I just went ahead and bought a bunch of stuff and now I do not know if the power supply is enough, I hope so because it is on the truck to me now.
Antec Tru-power 430w with top Antec case
ASUS 4PC800
3.06 ghz P4 512FSB
2 x WD Raptor Serial ATA 36Gb 10,000RPM in Raid 0 mode
1 x WD ATA/100 40Gb HD 7200rpm for backup
CD-RW 52x
DVD-RW
10/100 card
modem
FDD
dual front case fans
side fan
2 rear fans

I am thinking I may add 2 more Raptors for Raid 0+1 in the near future, but probably not. Don't want to unwrap the PSU for return unless it is enough.

You didn't mention what graphics card you have. Anyway, 430w should be enough.

yep. A good beefy PSU from a reputable manufacturer.
