Im guessing you could get a 750GB Samsung SATA for around $130AUD, if you look in the right place.

You could easily get a 1TB for that much. (Assuming this is USD.)

No, it's Australian Dollars, though I have seen a 1TB for $150AUD.

Yeah, AUD. When I posted I was in a bit of a rush but now I'll list it properly.
Case: Antec Sonata III - $187.00
Mobo: EP45-DS3L - $175.00
CPU: Intel Q6600 - $289.00
GPU: 512MB ATI 4850 - $239.00
RAM: 4GB Kit 800 MHz Apacer - $69.00
Cooling: Thermaltake Blue Orb II - $45.00
HDD: Seagate SATA 500GB - $89.00
DVDRW: SATA Pioneer 216 - $31.00
Prices are all from http://www.msy.com.au/Parts/PARTS.pdf.
I don't need a bigger HDD than 500GB and if I eventually do need more space I'll just buy a second one.

Nah, a long time ago I got a 4GB thumbdrive from there for $30 or so, and not long after when we were buying a new family computer I told my dad that building it piece by piece is far far cheaper. He asked where I would buy the parts, and I said internet. He refuses to buy over the internet however, and he said 'No, we'll buy locally. That MSY place looked like it had lots of computer parts when I went there recently,' and so I Googled MSY, and first result had http://www.msy.com.au/.
