    Is it worth it to install Win 10 in a second HDD?


    I've got Win10 up and running in my machine.

    And I've also got a 500GB HDD lying around and that got me thinking: Is it worth it to have the Windows installation in a different drive?

    Are there any performance gains if I use one HDD for Windows only and the other one for games, softwares, etc...?


    Edit: Will it also maybe get rid of that annoying 100% disk bug?

    :)

    The tutorials provided are just a list of troubleshooting steps. Use only the steps which apply to you.

    Since none of the troubleshooting steps here worked, I'd suggest you do a Clean install.
