Are you planning on running the HDD's in RAID? If not go with the WD 2TB Black. Also the PSU you picked is low quality and you will want a better unit, the XFX 550W Bronze is good for the price.

The other parts will work fine for there uses.

for basic uses like that the a10 is an awesome choice. i changed the psu to a cheaper yet better model.
