Take all the pins out, it will auto configure itself to a slave anyway if the other is primary - I personaly take them out the lot, and it figures out which the O/S is on and tada!
As for the ram yes, but be careful - brand new DDR is twice as much as DDR2 as it's older and rarer!

Agreed DannyJay, DDR is rare, and a little more expensive, but DSH85 youre right, DDR 400 mhz RAM aka PC-3200 RAM.
Easiest thing to do with the HDD is find the model of it and search on the manufacturers website. They all have online jumper setting guides to ease the pain!

that RAM is.........CORRECT! Thats the shizzle you want!
As long as you got one HDD in there no jumper on the HDD shouldnt be a problem
