So, I bought a PC. It'll come in a box and all I've got to do is set it up and install. But I've got some questions about hard drives and how to manage them.
It's got one SSD on about 250GB, with a secondary HDD on 2 TB.
1: What do I install where?
I know enough to keep the system files on their own, away from games and other programs. But which drive would be best to install the OS on? What would be the ideal place for the other guff?
2: Partitions.
2.1: I assume you can't partition a drive while the system files are there. If it's necessary, how do you do that?
2.2: What would be a decent "split" of the space (250 GB & t TB)?
I've only got a very foggy idea what the difference between a SDD and HDD is, and I'd rather have a little less vague idea of what I ought to be putting where. Thanks for your time!
