Hey Flatliner! Thanks for the feedback.
I'm not sure why he needs a blu ray writer, but he said he wants one so I put it in. The main reason I chose a 1 TB SSD was so that he could store not only his OS, but also his entire library of PC games on it. He has quite a big library on steam. I don;t have a whole lot of experience with SSD with HDD setups so I wouldn't know what would be required. And I added the rosewill because he wanted an SD card slot, and it seemed reasonably well reviewed and at a good price. Any particular reason why I shouldn't keep that in?

I also forgot to mention that I'm trying to future proof this PC as much as possible.
Thanks again!
