Hello, I just built my gaming rig. I have a 840 ssd (120gb) and also wd hdd (1t). I installed Steam onto the ssd, so now when i download games, they're saving onto the ssd. And that 120gb is going fast. I would like to keep Steam on the ssd, but i want the games to be saved onto my hdd. Anyone got a solution? Feedback is much appreciated. I am new to all of this computer stuff. Thank you.

Steam should allow you to make a library on the hard drive.

In this image it is two ssds but it works with hard drives as well. You should get the option before installing a game.

settings can be seen from Steam -> Settings -> Downloads -> Steam Library Folders

In a pinch you can move less used games this was as well, but the steam library is the most easy option now.
