Regarding the HDD I would suggest ONLY seagate.

I am personally using Seagate and Samsung.

Though I am very satisfied with both of them, my friends have had experiences with Samsung and thats why I am not recommending it to you.

DVD

I cannot help as I am not quite well versed with the prices.

Regard

samsung are the worst manufracturers of optical drive and also they have problems with their trays.

I suggest u go for lite on but first do check it has a good customer service in ur place. Orelse go for Sony its good and bcoz of falling prices u may get it for 3500. LG should be ur last option if u dont find any other brands mentioned above and dont go for samsung drives they are the worst optical drive
