I have a 32 G SSD. I've checked out a few guides online, but they usually don't account for the fact that my SSD is too small or the program they recommend don't do what I expect them to.

Any suggestions? Thanks!

Oh, and how do I download Chrome to my SSD. I'm never given an option on where to download the files, so it just auto-downloads to my original hard drive.

1. A 32GB SSD is too small, even if you're considering ONLY the OS.

2. This is the only application I've seen that purports to move 'only the OS to a new drive:

Not free.

But a 32GB is simply too small to bother with.

To download? Whatever browser you use to download should give you the option of 'where'.
Or did you mean 'install'?
