what? umm ok if they are saved onto the hrad drive yes most likely

though  recommend just putting games you play on a regular basis to the ssd and probably relocate the location of the downloads documents music pictures that kind of stuff t the hdd if you really want to save space on your ssd

Hi there MasterT8 :) Welcome to the community! 

 

Have in mind that gaming doesn't rely on the storage's performance for anything but the loading times. You won't see any changes in the FPS nor in the graphics when you move your games on the SSD so I'd simply suggest to keep most if not all games on the HDD and keep the SSD solely for applications that you use more frequently and for the OS, leaving some free/unallocated space for caching and over provisioning purposes.
