  You don't strictly need an app, just move it yourself and then symlink the directory. An app is likely easier, though. push butan git fasty

  Oh yeah. The app would just be convenience to have a Steam game drive manager. But if it was done well, it would sure be nice.

  Old games on spinner, newer games you play all the time on SSD.

  That's exactly it. I only have a 64GB SSD shared with the OS.

  I ended up just RAID0 my games drives. 2X500gb cheapies. I dont care if it crashes but it loads much quicker then a standard spin drive.
  
  I have a SSD for my OS but its more of a trial as well.
  
  I bought my 560ti OC for 200$, replaced my 5830 just so I could run this game smoothly haha.

  I was wondering about cutting the price with the main Storage (60 gb for 100$), instead running it with a secondary storage for 40$. Is there really any point in buying that main storage for 60gb at first place? In terms of money saving.

  hard drive prices are stupid fuck high right now. 2x and 3x what they were a month ago so factor that in with these system builds for now

  Exactly fatcat, that same 320gb drive is now $95, up from the $39 listed here. Big time WTF.
  
  
  Seems the flooding in Thailand is the cause. Expected drop to come in March 2012.
