I just got a new SSD (crucial mx300 525gb), after cloning my old HDD to it, I've got duplicate files on my SSD. What should i delete from it? It's taking up 300+gbs.

Delete EVERYTHING from the HDD.
Then, move whatever you choose from the SSD to the HDD.

Currently, the HDD has the OS on it. Mucking things up and taking up space for no reason.

You went from the HDD to the SSD?
And cloned everything?

If so, assuming it boots properly from only the SSD, you then wipe everything from the HDD
