Now you can keep yourself installing the main apps you like most into the SSD, but make sure you leave some room empty -- mean do not use all the SSD capacity -- use around 70% of it only.

Your SSD is your C drive, but I do not recommend you to storage things on its libraries, like images, movies, or large files. What I have done was to create on the HDD (E: drive in your case) a new folder called Library, then I created sub-folders like Image, Movies and Documents, so I save everything on there.

I have a gaming computer and what i do is :

Games -» 1TB Drive

Everything else -» SSD

Your programs won't take all of your 120Gb right now ... In a year maybe but when it will be full, install programs on the Hdd instead. If you are a gamer you shouldn't have problems with space. The 1TB will be full before the ssd.
