Building computer mostly for gaming. My question is what is the best way to configure HHD's? One is WD WD15EARX-00PASB0 - 1.5TB IntelliPower SATA 6.0Gbps 3.5Inch 64MB Hard Drive (used but empty) the other is Samsung - 860 Evo 1 TB M.2-2280 Solid State Drive (new empty) also have
120GB Silicon Power SATA III SSD S55 2.5-inch TLC Ultra-slim 7mm (read/write: 520/370MB/sec) that has OS (windows 10 home) on it that was thinking of putting on the Samsung.

Other parts
ASUS Z170-AR
LGA 1151
Intel Z170 (new)

Core i5-6400 2.7 GHz Quad-Core Processor (used)

Cooler Master
Hyper 212 EVO
Processor
Cooler (new)

HyperX Fury
16GB (2 x
8GB) DDR4
2400 RAM (new)

EVGA - GeForce GTX 680 4 GB Video Card (used)

Antec - TruePower Quattro 1000 W (used)




 
Solution
I would use the Samsung evo as the main disk (OS, apps, most used files, etc,)
The WD 1.5TB SATA as backup/storage.
Have the 120GB SSD as a spare just in case.


This is what I thinking of doing but wasn't sure if there was a better way to use them.

Thank You
