You would get much better performance from an SSD over a HDD. HDD's are the current weak link in computer hardware. SSD's while still new and expensive are very fast. I'm picking one up right after Christmas. Hopefully the Intel's will get a price drop, or I'll get a gift card.

In looking at your build, it looks like you are spending $2500+. Wow! I knew Macs were expensive, but I honestly had no idea they were that expensive.
