Getting a 160GB SSD, have a 500 GB HDD now with Windows 7 Ultimate. I use this for rig for gaming. I also have a 250 GB HDD that I could incorporate with this system, if needed. I figure that I might as well use it. Ok, this is what I want to do.
Have my OS and certain games utilize the speed that the SSD can offer. Use the 500GB HDD for game and multimedia storage. I would transfer games as needed to the SSD. Use the 250GB HDD for misc. files, possibly for backup.
So here comes the question... How do I set it up? Do I have to reinstall the OS onto the SSD and wipe my 500GB HDD, which is currently my primary HDD with about 300GB full. Use RAID? HOW? HELP.
I know I'm asking a lot here but I have never messed with HDD layering. I'm just wanting OS boot up speed, game boot speed (for certain games) out of this SSD.
Thanks,
MARK
