Hey,

 

I have one 500gb and one 1TB 860 evo( bought the 1tb because i needed more space) and doing a clean install of windows.

On which one should I install windows? On the larger one so I can fit more programms on the same drive where windows is on?

 

Thanks

I would install it to the large drive, usually a larger SSD have a longer lifespan than a smaller one and Windows does a bit of writing although you can put the pagefile on whatever drive you want. But hey, if you want to dedicate the 1TB for games the 500GB will be plenty for Windows and you can even put the pagefile on the large one if you want.
