I'll suggest Western Digital Cavial Green Edition for internal.
For external also my choice will be WD.
As HDDs requires very less power so if your PC is running fine now then you shouldn't face any problems.

Then I am pretty much sure that you won't need a power supply just for HDD.

Buddy if ur into animation then a High End GPU is a must + High Efficiency PSU

animation students generally use LeadTek Quadro Series card speciall designed for them...they r costly

Well GFX specially build for your purpose is pricey but its the best for you. Normal GFX are mainly for gaming or HD.
