Hdds:
Shouldnt go into much details here. Just to note that while building a pc, the most essential component would be - the hard disk.
Without it, everything is useless - regardless of how good your specs are.
While getting a hdd. Look @ the amount of Rpm it is running @.
The higher the rpm, the faster the hdd disk spins and as such, data can be read/ wrote faster.
These are for conventional hdd.
Nowadays the trend would be to get solid state drives. I shallnt go into much detail here to.
Just that it functions like - a flash drive/thumb drive.
It is less fragile than a normal hdd and it performs faster (there are many videos in youtube which shows comparisons) - without those stupid disk needles in the hdds.
but it is $$ now due to the low quantity produced and capacity is significantly lower than normal hdds.

add on:
Most Media centre pcs do normally have a remote (bluetooth, infrared) which users use to control the volume, start stop a video ect
Now adays, TV tuners are a must or quite a norm in media centre pcs, due to the vast availability of components.The newer ones - on top of having a tv tuner, has a FM/AM radio tuner - with broadcast capabilities. This allows you to play your songs via the media player and select whichever songs are to be broadcasted. This does not come at a cheap price though, further more, it is only able to broadcast up to a certain distance.
