I'm going to build a 2500k rig, prob with a z77 mobo, It will have an Intel 520 Cherryville SSD for the OS.

I need an internal, 1-2TB HDD 7200rpm.

What drives would people suggest? The faster the better (I doubt I'd buy a 10,000rpm drive)

Thanks in advance
 
I would probably go for a 5200/5400/5900 RPM drive since you are planning to buy an SSD. Not only are they a bit less expensive they generally use alot less power/generate less heat. Access times are not really an issue when it comes to media access as they are generally larger contiguous files.
