Hi, I received my new desktop today and I need some help! I have a 120GB SSD as a boot drive and a 1TB HDD I wanted to use as general storage ie, downloads, documents, music etc. I assumed this would be set up for me but it isn't and so how do I do it? At the moment everything gets written to my SSD. I realize this is probably a big ask but please help!!

There's an excellent guide for SSD management here: https://www.pcspecialist.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?14728-SSD-Management All credit to the OP Buzz :)

Are you for real?

The OP may not be as comfortable changing settings as some users are.

Hi, I have never had to deal with multiple drives before, just a single drive on a laptop. If you have nothing useful to say then why bother?

Yeah, I knew how to do that. It was just the rest, Pictures etc. Got it sorted though, thanks for the help!
