I am buying a SSD for my system and currently have Win7 on a 10k RPM HDD. I am looking to maximize current setup for gaming so my thought was to put Steam on the new secondary SSD and leave the OS, as is, on the 10k RPM HDD.
Would it be better for gaming to install BOTH the OS and my game on the new SSD or just leave Windows on the HDD and install my games on the SSD?
Just not sure where the bottleneck would occur in this setup: the old HDD reading windows with games on SSD
or
my system reading both windows and my games from the new SSD?
I assume the ideal setup would be TWO new SSDs with one for the OS and one for games but not an option atm
Thoughts or advice much appreciated!
