I would recommend another RAM upgrade eventually, jumping it from 2GB up to 4GB. Also, the case is totally up to you. I picked the Rosewill because it that was neat, had decent reviews, and I like the top fan set up.
You could also run a RAID 1 setup for the hard drives and buy two and mirror them as a fail over but thats optional.
I would also look into an APS or Tripp Lite UPS as an accessory to help save your investment from a power surge.
