I dont think you need 4gb ram for what u intend to use it for.

2gb is enough. Whats the price diff?

20 odd pound

I would save £20. Also just thaught I have the SG02 Black case.

Its the same dimensions as the SG01 but in plastic rather than ali. Its a lot a lot cheaper as well - so you can save money there.

is the psu super quite?

i've got that motherboard, an e4500 chip, and 8 gigs of that ram. i've got a mixture of samsung drives, but i recently purchased one of those tb drives for my htpc downstairs. i re-used an antec case, and updated the psu to a 380w truepower, i'm currently posting from it running 2003 server x64 edition where it is happily hosting vmware server with 11 vm's running simultaneously. i think it will be fine for what your wanting to do with it.

Do you not want to backup the files, run a raid 1 or something?
