My hard drive broke a couple of months ago, so to tide me over I used a small SSD so I could still access the internet etc. I bought and installed a 2tb hard drive yesterday but thought I might as well keep the ssd with the OS as it was booting up quite rapid, thinking I could use the hard drive for my games etc.
Since I installed this new hard drive my computer has been running painfully slow, anything installed on the hard drive (eg. Steam) is prone to not responding etc. I tried a clean install of it but the problem persists.
I used the SATA cable connected to the disc drive as I wasn't supplied one with the new hdd.
I have a basic knowledge of computers so I hope I've just overlooked something.
