Looks like a nice set up (tho I'm no pro). I've got a set up with an i5-2400S also using the internal GPU and it's running smoothly :Smile:

You'd want to check that the SSD supports TRIM. Take a look at this thread.

No, not for the HTPC per se but it saves the drive from unnecessary writes.

And as for suggestions, no I don't see anything in particular that would count as wrong.
