Ryan,

If you want to add a hard drive, I would just look at adding a 1TB or 2TB drive that is 7200 RPM and has a SATAII connection. You should be able to find a variety relatively cheap on...

Randall,

I'm pretty sure Steve ruled out the 1156 platform because video editors quite frankly don't use them because you can get more RAM on the 1366 AND have the option of dropping in a 6 core. ...

That case is too small in my opinion. It would be a VERY tight fit (if at all) to get one of the bigger CPU coolers in it. You want one closer to 9" wide, not 8". Also, mid tower just isn't big...
