Agreed. The Via PT880 wasn't exactly a popular chipset, so you may want to steer towards something based off the P965 chipset if nothing else as...
Google Play, but only by default since I have always had an Android Smartphone. I really haven't messed with iTunes/App Store for the wife's iPod...
Do you have a budget in mind? If you're doing any RAID array, it is ideal to have identically sized drives for starters. You can mix and match...
