I see that there are two hard drive opinions between either a 2TB hard drive 7200RPMs and a 600GB hard drive 10kRPMs

what I want to know is...

Isn't there a 2TB hard drive with 10K RPMs?

I'm building my first computer from scratch and I am trying to find out what the best hardware would be to use
I would like to have a 2TB hard drive that clocks at 10k RPMs without over-clocking it.

I was also thinking about the EVGA 132-CK-NF78-A1 LGA 775 NVIDIA nForce 780i SLI ATX Intel Motherboard
Intel i7 Processor
and EVGA 256-P2-N751-TR GeForce 8600GT 256MB 128GDDR3 PCI Express x16 SLI supported video card

so I was wondering if these would all go together as far as the video card I seen a GeForce 8900 with 1TB self dedicated memory
for the Graphics card.
I'm sure this one is better than the 8600GT 256MB but I am not sure.

My main question for this topic is; are there any 2TB 10k RPM hard drives available
if so, what should I use for the rest of my computer as far as the;
memory, motherboard, graphics card, sound card (if I don't use bose speaker set), Processor, pre-mentioned hard drive, power supply, and cooling unit.

I want to make the best computer I can I don't care how much its going to cost cause I will be buying parts one piece at a time untill they are all put together
as long as no one piece cost over $1k for a single piece.. depending on the piece and how many pieces are this high priced I may make some exceptions

I of course want to make sure I don't buy anything too current due to unresolved bug issues, I want to get the best I can get without needing to worry about a bunch
of bug issues or part malfunctions. I already have the windows 7 professional OS and will be buying the next upgrade as soon as the computer is put together
and finished.

Sorry I put all this in one topic I should split it up in the proper topics rather than putting it all in one but I thought I could get all my answers in one topic.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hello Sukotto welcome to PCHHQ :D hard drives in 2 TB in size are not available in 10,000 RPM yet they are in smaller sizes. You could get 2 smaller 10,000 RPM drives and RAID them. With the mainboard you selected the I7 will not fit. Is this going to be a gaming PC? so members can recommend a build to suit.
