Classic mistake - - - You should have removed the HDD before installing Windows.

If you simply reformat the HDD now, your system may not be able to boot from SSD alone as boot partition may be on the HDD.

Best plan is to remove the HDD, then install Windows on the SSD again.

When that's done you can reformat the HDD to use it for storage.
