cgimana Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 (edited) I just got a spaking new laptop with a 500GB HD, I also grabbed a 64GB SSD to use as the primary, and put the 500GB as the secondary.What I want to do is set the install of my windows 7 to only have the OS files on the 64GB HD.The program files are so small that they run just fine from the slower 500GB HDD.With vLIte can I have the install of windows install Program Files, Program Files (x86), Common Files, DevicePath, and MediaPathUnexpanded all to the D:\ drive to save space on the 64gb SSD for the games I want to install to it? Currently I have World of Warcraft and the OS on the SSD, but there isn't much room for many other games.Older games like Diablo 2 and Star Craft I don't mind installing to the HDD, but Diablo III and StarCraft 2 I know I want installed to the SSD, but I need to free up the space.I am guessing I need to get the install of Windows 7 files on the SSD to about 10-15GB with all the files and folders that can be redirected to the HDD.Any help would be really nice.

cgimana Posted April 27, 2010 Author Share Posted April 27, 2010 (edited) Umm thanks.But what I want to do is have all the preinstalls windows program files installed to a different drive letter, then the main OS, that would save me only a GB, but not sure if that is worth it or not.CGIManaToshiba Qosmio X505-Q86064GB SSD Primary Data Medium500GB HDD Secondary Date Medium Edited April 27, 2010 by cgimana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
