Be careful running the IDE and SATA at the same time, unless the IDE is just for backup purposes. If your system has to read from both at the same time (say Vista is installed on the SATA and a game on the IDE) you will take a major performance hit.

Also, double check that 550W is enough power. The quad core mixed with 2 HDD's and the video card will draw a ton of juice. My guess is that you will be ok though.
