What do you store where?

Yes, but he is not starting with two new drives. He has a HDD, previously his C-drive, which is completely filled up. It likely has a lot of temp files and other cr@p on it which is not needed. I would clean it up to remove all those unnecessary files after I deleted Windows 10 from it and moved steam to the M.2 drive. (Oh, the link was just to make sure he did not accidentally remove his downloads while running storage sense. You may be able to omit downloads from being purged in the storage sense selections, so you may not need to change anything)
First hook up only the M.2 drive, add Windows 10 to it, then set it up as the boot drive in the UEFI. After that you can hook up the old HDD and move steam from it to your M.2 drive and remove Windows 10 from the HDD.
