Actually HD speed is somthing that is overlooked by many people and it has more effect than people would think.

I got a Seagate 250 GB Barracuda 7200.10 (8MB, SATA II, perpendicular recording) - for $82.00

EDIT:
here is a similar one 320GB
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822148140
for $94

It's really worth it to spend the extra 40 bucks (which is nothing compared to total price of PC) and getting a better HD.

EDIT2:
*what* a typo. I meant SATA of course. Sir K's post made me notice it.
