I'm also a little leery when I see 'Green' in a drive's name. These drives are often marketed as 'low power' drives that are more environmentally friendly, but in reality they're hard drives with lower levels of on board cache memory. This leads to the drive collecting a lot of wear and tear on it in a short time and expiring.
Your hard drive is only 5400 rpm, though, which will slow your system down. At the levels you're looking at, look for a SSD which would be much faster.
I think your power supply would be sufficient - you only have one graphics card - but there are calculators out there.
Are you planning on overclocking?
