Nice start! Make sure to update the BIOS before installing the 9900X3D to avoid any compatibility hiccups with the AM5 platform.
Good call on the BIOS update, especially with the 9900X3D on an AM5 board. The setup looks solid overall.

The Seagate SkyHawk drive is an interesting pick for a workstation; it could offer reliability benefits if you're handling important data, though it's worth checking its performance for your specific workload.
