I feel like an idiot for asking, it seems like there's such a simple answer to it, but now that the SSD and extra HD are installed, how do I get all downloaded content to automatically go to the HD? I'm only seeing the option of going to the C drive (the SSD).
Is there a way also to re-route the library folders (My pictires, documents, videos, etc..) to that HD?

Yes, but how to do it will depend on which browser you're using, which you didn't say.

In Windows 7, try this:Is there a way also to re-route the library folders (My pictires, documents, videos, etc..) to that HD?
1. Open Windows Explorer.
2. Go to C:\Users. You'll find a folder with the same name as your user account name. Go to that folder. You will see a bunch of folders named "Downloads", "Documents", "Videos", etc.
3. Right-click on "Documents" and select "Properties". A Properties window will appear. Go to the "Location" tab. You will see the current location of the Documents folder. Click "Move" and select the new location of the Documents folder.
4. Repeat the procedure on the rest of the folders.

Re: Differentiating the SSD and the HD?
^^^ Yep what he said. Makes backing up a bit easier too as you just back up the HDD. Firefox and most any other program will, by default, download to the "Downloads" folder. Moving the Downloads folder to the HDD will direct everything there.
