Ok so I kinda have no clue how to ask this since this is my first time doing this, but here I go. I just got a solid state in december and built a desk for myself and finished it a few days ago.

My solid state is acting as the Boot Win 7 but its 128gb and I have another Drive as a 1TB. I partitioned atleast like 200gb from the 1tb. Can't you make the 200gb as a folder or something in the C: Drive or just make it another drive and just change the program installation "folders" to the new drive area? or what should you do?

Programs can be installed anywhere, as long as you do it during the actual install routine. Windows does not care. You just can't 'move it' later.

On my system, on another drive, I have a top level folder called 'MyProgs'. During an installation, if I want it to be installed on that HDD, I select that as the location.
Does not have to be named "Program Files"
