Here's the story:
My Garry's Mod is broken and I needed a bunch of content so my friend had to manually send all his .gma's to me. I downloaded this shady installer from Speedyshare and downloaded a 41+GB file of content. Keep in mind I have 53 gb free in my ssd. I then download all the addons and store it in my Downloads. I proceed to move the huge folder to my D drive, my 1Tb Hard Drive. I move each folder to the garrysmod folder but after a while it says "You do not have space on this disk", and now Samsung magician is giving me errors http://puu.sh/aKxkV/8f88b5b2c5.png.

Any help to get my 53 gigs back? Thanks in advance!

I forgot to mention that if there is a bootloader present on one of the hard drives detected on the system, the Windows installation will not add a bootloader to the new installation. I am really sorry for the inconvenience. Shut the system down and unplug the storage drive. Start the system up. You should get BOOTMGR is missing, Press Ctrl+Alt+Delete to restart. Insert the Windows installation disc and restart. Set the CD/DVD drive as the first boot device. Save and reboot. You should boot off of the installation disc. Hit Alt+R. Let Automatic Repair run. Let Windows apply the changes and reboot. During the POST, remove the disc from the drive. If Windows says that there was a error communicating with a device in the computer, press...

Download H.D.D.L.L.F. and install it. Run it and select the Samsung 120GB Evo and do a full wipe. That 100% wipes the ENTIRE drive, removes ALL partitions, and the MBR. If the drive came out of a BIOS system, re-initialize the drive the the MBR partition type. If it came out of a UEFI system, re-initialize the drive with the GPT partition type. This MUST be done in Disk Management and with Admin rights. Note: The wipe will take several hours, depending on the size of the drive. A 160GB drive took about 50 minutes on IDE. It should go even faster with a SSD on SATA. Hope it helps! :)

Open Command Prompt with Admin Rights. Type in CHKDSK /f /r. Hit Enter. Press Y at the prompt saying you want to force a dismount on the drive. If no error happens, press Ctrl+C. Close Command Prompt and retry HDDLLF. The reason I had you run the CHKDSK /f /r command is to dismount the Samsung drive to format it. DO NOT FORGET to put the drive letter in front of the CHKDSK /f /r command. (E.x. CHKDSK /f /r E:) Hope that helps!

I do but that means I'd have to install Windows on my slow HDD, something I really don't want to do since it's strictly my storage. But if I have to, so be it.

Right now, DO NOT install Windows on that drive. Make a new folder on the Samsung drive and place ALL STORAGE DRIVE CONTENTS into that folder. To make it quick, open the root of the storage drive, hold down the Ctrl key and press A. Then press Ctrl+C. Navigate to the folder on the samsung drive and open it. Then press Ctrl+V. Let Windows copy the files and install Windows on that drive. Open the root of the Samsung drive and navigate to Program Files (x86) and copy the HDDLLF folder (may be named HDDGuru or something along those lines to the desktop. Once that is complete, copy all personal data to the Windows disk with the fresh install. Open the folder and navigate to the HDDLLF folder and run the HDDLLF executable (maybe HDDLLF.exe or something like that). Select the Samsung drive and do a full wipe. If the drive came out of a BIOS system, re-initialize the drive the the MBR partition type. If it came out of a UEFI system, re-initialize the drive with the GPT partition type. This MUST be done in Disk Management and with Admin rights. Note: The wipe will take several hours, depending on the size of the drive. A 160GB drive took about 50 minutes on IDE. It should go even faster with a SSD on SATA. Hope it helps! :)
