Hello, im planning to add Samsung Evo 500Gb to my pc (currently has 1Tb HDD). After i migrate my all files to SSD from HDD,will I be able to use my current HDD as a secondary drive?

Steps for migration:
Install Macrium Reflect
Power off
Connect the SSD
Power up
Run the Macrium application
Do what it says regarding Clone, reading carefully
Once it is complete, power off
Disconnect the old drive
Connect the new drive into the same SATA port the old one was in
Power up and see if it boots properly

Assuming it does, success.
Verify operation.
Maybe restart a couple of times, just to be sure it will boot from only the new SSD

Later, once you are satisfied, reconnect the old drive
Wipe it and use as desired.
