I think my mistake was installing these games into program files, I should of made a seperate folder.

I mean i created catergories for everything but just installed the games into programs files out of loss of patience.

So in other words don't even sniff partition,lol, So how can i better manage my stuff or in other words how would you do it?

You can partition if you need to. Maybe you have more stuff than I am thinking. I would use one drive for each thing then have everything backed up on the 2TB

When i had the 80 GB IDE that had the OS installed as well as the programs.

1 TB samsung, games
1 TB Segate, Media
2 TB Samsung G3 Station External, Back up

Now the 1 TB Samsung has the OS , Programs , Games
1 TB Segate, Media eg. Movies, Music, Pictures
2 TB has my Back up of all that besides the games

So is this still fine as apart of me tells me not to partition, im in the field of IT so my experience is overidding my mind,lol.

I think uninstall those games make a new folder to intall them into and keep the rest the same ?
