So I have 2 SSD drives in my PC , they’re both SATA 3 and exactly the same aside from the sizes. I however can only actually use the full SATA 3 speeds with 1 of the drives.
my motherboard only has 1 SATA 3 connection port , and 1 SATA 2 port. I have windows installed on my SATA 3 port SSD for the best speeds. The second SSD is installed into the SATA 2 port, as it is the only other available port.
from my understanding having games separate from your windows drive is generally better and more optimal for gaming, so my question(s) is would it be better to have a game installed on the second drive despite it being SATA 2 and slower ? Or am I best to keep games on the C drive that is using SATA 3? Or will it even matter at all ? And would it maybe be worth it to swap windows installation to the SATA 2 drive , so I can then use games separately on the faster SATA 3 ?? Thx in advance
