Using a SSD for just boot up and a game and then a HHD for everything else.

Kaspesi · Feb 21, 2014

Hello,
I recently build a computer with both a SSD and a HHD, I booted windows on the solid state. The only question I have is how I make it so everything but windows and a few game are on the solid state. And everything else on the HHD, this includes desktop, downloads, and programs that I install will go there by default. (I know that you can choose where you want to install the program to.

so basically you want the default instal dir to be the HDD instead of program file. If that's the case you can do it with regedit, you can go through this thread. Hope this helps
