Ok, so i'm building my first pc, and I'm buying an SSD and an HDD for it.
SSD: https://pcpartpicker.com/part/samsung-internal-hard-drive-mz75e120bam
HDD: https://pcpartpicker.com/part/seagate-internal-hard-drive-st2000dm001
I will be using the SSD as boot and some games/applications, and HDD as my main storage.
When I install my OS, do I just select the SSD to boot to, or will that make it so I can't use the rest of the SSD space? Should I partition it, so only some of the SSD is used for boot?
Also, how do I get an application to utilize the increased speed of the SSD while using HDD as storage? Lastly, when I install an OS to the SSD, does that mean the main C drive (my computer) and folders like downloads, pictures, etc. are in the SSD; is there a way to change that while installing? I'm not very experienced at this, so these questions might be really stupid.
Any answers, help, and tips are greatly appreciated. Thanks
