I'm putting together a computer for my father and I need a little help with the hardware since I haven't really kept up with hardware for the past year or two. Anyway, this machine will be for music editing and a little bit of video editing. Note that I did not select a graphics card since there's a geforce fx 5200 that we were planning on putting in. Critiques on that choice are welcome. Also, we were going to put a 40 gb drive in there as a system drive. The 2 300 gb drives are for storage.

2x Western Digital Caviar SE 300GB 7200RPM SATA Hard Drive, MODEL WD3000JD (we want to raid 0 these)

All DVD drives and whatnot we're taking out of an older computer. Thoughts?
