Will moving games from a SSD to a HDD make a Difference

[starwars245p]

I have a 500gb SSD and a 1 tb HDD. All of my games(steam) are locating on my SSD but I'm running out of storage and cant afford another SSD. So I was wondering if I move some of my games from the SSD to the HDD will it be lower performance compared to the SSD.

Yep, based on how many gigs you have of main memory and how frequently you reference various files that could force a paging situation. You could move your least referenced games to the HDD and then recall them to the SSD whenever you feel the need to play them. This would treat the HDD as an archival drive, which should be backed up from time to time.

Load times will be slower, but generally you will not affect the FPS in-game moving it to a HDD vs a SSD
