    Right, I have used up 1 SSD with Steam. So how do I go about downloading new games to another HDD/SSD and for steam to recognise my games on that other HDD/SSD as another games location?

    Ant help would be much appreciated. :)
    Cheers,

    Simon.

    Move the entire steam library to the other drive?
    That's what I did onto the 2nd SSD I acquired recently...
    Google move steam games - really easy

    I want both my SSD's full of steam games, and for steam to recognise the games on both SSD's.
    How can I go about that? :)

    Interesting easy to use junctions tool. I do manual management, as in I copy the game directory to my server to avoid having to download again, and delete it off my main pc when I am done. Don't ever see a need to have more than a few games I am actively playing installed, but that's just how I roll I guess.

    If I was using a desktop PC, then yes, that is what I would do. But as I'm using a laptop, which I take to work with me as I work away. I like to have as many games and variety as possible installed. :)
