You won't be able to upgrade the hard drive on a new iMac, not easily at least. They have a temperature sensor which, although present on other OEM drives, generally isn't 100% compatible so the fans ramp up to full as a failsafe.
There is HDD Fan Control, http://www.hddfancontrol.com/, which will keep the fans at a normal speed based on the hard drive's SMART status. That should allow you to put any hard drive into the iMac. RAM is much easier and cheaper if you buy from crucial.com/uk, they do free next-day delivery.
