2 x 1TB Western Digital Black Cavair hard drives will be used again from my existing rig

I will be using this rig for games and music mostly, and also with the hot swap bays, will be able to use it for other purposes like a file server, virtual PC server and a hackintosh

I have chosen most of these brands as i have used them before and seeing some of them used in Tom's videos, makes the choice even better

i will post photos and a progress report at every step of the build

looking forward to doing this build, as I am a computer hardware engineer and love building computers. I have built my own for over 10 years now.

It is great building your own systems as you can decide what you want to put in and future proof as much as possible

I have picked up a few tips from watching Tom's videos and look forward to using them in this new build

any comments and suggestions are welcome

Looks good to me. Maybe you could drop the 3770k and grab a 3570k if you will be using the rig mostly for gaming and music. By using it for music, do you mean editing it or just listening to it?
