I have a 1 TB HDD and a 120 GB SSD. On the HDD I have all my data along with Steam and—currently—all my games. On the SSD I have Windows 7 and programs, but there’s 50 GB of unused space that I wish to use for the games I most commonly play on Steam (for quicker loading times, etc).
To summarize, I want to have this situation:
- 120GB SSD (C:\): Windows, programs, and a few Steam games.
- 1TB HDD (D:\): data, Steam, and most games.
Is this possible? If not, what other choices do I have to do something similar?
Answer
You can create multiple ‘game libraries’ in Steam, each one going in a different location on your computer, in your case, 2 different hard disks.
Nolonar adds a good point:
Keep in mind that not all games can be installed on a library other than where Steam is installed; most notably old games like Half-Life 2
Steam > Settings > Downloads tab > Click ‘Steam library folders’ button.
Next time you download a game you can choose where to put it.
Look here for 2 ways to add the library.
Read this question if you want to move games between libraries.
