Hello,
I just got a Crucial M500 480GB SSD and I want to use it in my computer for the OS (windows 7 64bit) and the programs (nothing special at all) and games (counter strike, left 4 dead, etc. also not something extreme).
I currently have a seagate 1tb (I think Barracuda), 8gb of ram, intel i7 4770 (3.4ghz) and a gigabyte motherboard H87-D3H (1150/H87/DDR3) and an AMD Radeon R7 200 Series.
I will, from now on, use the 1TB hard drive only to store movies, songs, pictures and documents. Any ideas of how I should proceed? Oh and also, in which format should I, well, format them (the SSD and the HDD)?
Thank you!

Thank you for the fast replies. I don't know the differences between RAID AND AHCI and now is not a time for me to search them.. I do not mind re-writing windows, so I will re-install them once I set it up. Do I have to make 'adjustments' or some specific option to use the SSD? Or I treat it like my HDD?
