For your storage you should reconsider the single 3TB drive and go with multiple smaller drives.
A good suggestion I have read is to do as follows:

•1 x HDD: C: - contains your operating system and programs
( this would be your SSD)
•2 x HDD (RAID 1 mirror): G: - contains your video captures/project files
(this offers automatic redundancy/backup in case of any problem)
•2 x HDD (RAID 0 stripe): H: - contains your output files
(This makes the final projects able to finish much faster due to writing parts of the info to both disks at once. But offers no backup if one of the drives fails, that is what RAID1 is for)
