I have a i 3770 k 3.5 3rd gen processor, a 64 gb samsung ssd hard drive, a second 1 tig hard drive, a 650 ti graphics card, all on a p8 z77 v deluxe motherboard.
My goal is to install my os (windows 7 professional) on my ssd, and all other documents-files folders, etc., on the second drive.
I need t understand how to have the first drive dedicated only to my operating system (goal-faster boot), and the other drive for everything else.
When I first started my computer and installed the new os, it installed correctly on my ssd. But all of my other updates, as well as my outlook, and all other software installed went only to the ssd drive. I now have 59 gb used on my ssd, and my computer does not recognize my second hard drive.
FYI....I have a 1 tig back up plus external back up drive that I will use for my back up.
any thoughts and instructions would be greatly appreciated. This was my first build and I have things pretty correct but need to make it better.
Thank you.
