I was curious what brand of HDD you guys would suggest for keeping recordings on? I plan on recording my league games to watch and edit them. I was thinking WD Green or Red. :)

WD Purple are for security cameras if I'm not mistaken.

2TB WD Red should get you started. How much storage you need will depend on resolution, software you use to record and length (obviously.) 

Fine you want the PSU tier list? Have the PSU tier list: https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/1116640-psu-tier-list-40-rev-103/

Correct. Its meant to have data being written 24/7. Which you don't need for game recording.

I will be recording at either 720p or 1080p and average of 20-40 minutes of video at a time.
