Hello I do video editing, a complete novice by the way, and I've always only had one hard drive, but now I have a setup where I have 1x500gb SSD drive and 1x1TB M.2 drive, so I'm curious where should I install my OS and programs? Should I put it on the 500gb and use the M.2 to save my final projects or vice versa? Appreciate any input.

Pugetsystems recommends:

Primary SSD:
OS & Software Primary SSD

Secondary SSD:
Project files, Scratch, & Media Cache

due to :

Importing media is faster on m.2* than ssd or platter
Conforming Audio is faster on m.2*
Generating Peak Files is faster on m.2*

m.2 being x4 lanes
