To install a program on the second drive create a folder on it "programs" for example then browse to that location when installing anything,or better still,simply delete the "C" on "location"when installing the program and type in the drive letter of the drive you want to install to, this will automatically create the necessary folder on the drive the first time you do it.
You could also create another folder on the 2TB hard drive and manually move any downloads to it.
Some good tips in this sticky by Buzz on SSD management.

so can literally open up my c: and e: drive.. copy my program files or whatever to E: from C: by dragging them... and thats it? i thought doing this could make a path error ^^

No,you can't simply copy programs over,that won't work,you can install new programs to "E" as I described above,to install existing programs to the "E" drive you would need to uninstall them then reinstall,just delete the "C" on "location"when installing the program and type in the letter of drive you want it installed to (E) for example,if that's the letter of your 2TB drive.
As for download files you can change the download target,In Firefox for example,what I use,click on tools/options/general/then under downloads browse to where you want to save the downloads then set it,or select "always ask me where to save files".First create a folder on your second drive and name it downloads or whatever you prefer.
