It will work fine =)

I don't really know much about the Hdd though.

If you can, the samsung / seagate / western digitals seem better options.

Fitted one last week for someone. No issues with it at all.

This (Western Digital Caviar Special Edition 160GB SATA-II 8MB Cache) worth the few extra quid or no difference?

I would buy a Seagte/Samsung/Western Digital as advised above. If you can spend an extra £15 then the samsung 250GB drive is very fast and virtually silent I have two my self .
