i don't know much about hot-swapable hdds, but that hdd looks like it's only supposed to be used with certain servers.

but dang, that's a **** load of money for just 250gb.


anyway, for a gfx card you should look for a 4850, 5750 or spend a little more on a 5770.

and don't get an lga775 build. with your budget, you will get more bang for your buck from an amd based build. also, amd has a bigger upgrade path since their new 6-core cpus will be coming out for their am3 socket.

if you tell us your budget and your intended use for this pc, we could help you make a better build though.
 
What do you need a 250gb "server" drive for? I always thought you could use any hard drive as a hotswapable one if you changed around some settings?

Cause that's taking a rather large chunk out of your budget too.
