I have two 500GB hard drives in my current desktop that I would probably transfer over. They are both new, since about 4 months ago one of my old ones crashed and I started over (had it setup in a RAID from when I bought it). I planned on using those as extra storage. Not sure if I really need to drop any more money on another drive since I have a few available, although another $50 isn't a big deal.

Thanks for the input!

Also, I found the RAM I have right now. I'm not versed enough to know the difference between the two:

Here is what I already have and can just use in my new PC: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231314 (I have this x3, so 24 GB total)

Here is what I was thinking of ordering: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231429

One is quad channel and the other is dual channel. That's the only difference I can see. My MoBo doesn't say anything about quad channel support, although it does say dual channel. Does this mean the RAM I selected (new purchase) is not compatible with my MoBo?
