Ok I am not that savvy on up to date tech as I should be here. The last tower I built ran like two120 gig hdds , after that I had a Dell "just a old stuido XPS. Now I could not afford to build "haven't built one in years anyhow and small things are harder to see the older you get lol" or buy a new tower and mine was so out of date. My son wanted to get me a new computer for gaming so he bought me this one which currently has a 120 ssd and a 1 TB hhd. One of the things I want to do before updating the graphics card is add a second 1 TB ssd in this tower and keep both my current storage devices. This way I will have the 120 ssd just for my system boot, a 1 TB ssd for my games then the standard 1 TB hhd for any files such as pictures, music etc. So my question is can this be done and will adding the second ssd be faster than running all my games off of the standard hhd? My current system specs below.
