I'd go with the Silverstone DA650 but thats just personal preference. The corsair is also an excellent choice.

2) The 8 PIN power connector on the MOBO is 2x 4pin power connectors combined in parallel to draw more power safely. 1x 4pin power plug will work, but you should think of an upgrade.
3) If you're running x64 OS and have more than 3GB ram installed but windows is only reporting around 3GB, Go into your bios and enable Memory remapping.

I second the Corsair 620. You could probably get away with the hx520 but you do have a lot of HDs so it's probably a good idea to get a little more juice. buy.com and provantage.com typically have the best prices on Corsair psus.
