Seagate 2 * 500 GB SATA 7200rpm HDD

Thanks, I am getting the FSP Saga II 500 W. Are FSP PSUs very good? I was recommended one for my AMD PC too, in another thread.

Re: PSU for a Core-i3 build
Since the FSP Saga II was not available at the store, I went with a Huntkey V Series 500W PSU. Is it good?
