SSD + HDD General questions

Hi all
Has anyone got any experience of using a SSD for the OS, frequently used programmes etc and the HDD for everything else (music movies etc)?

My main questions are

1) Will PCS pre install Windows 7 onto the SSD? and have a secondary partition for the HDD?

2) How do I make sure my user files, music and movies stay on the HDD and not on the SSD?

I have not run a SSD and HDD set up before so any advice or practical knowledge would be greatly appreciated especially on making sure my system stays uncluttered and fast.

PCS willl normally install OS on "first hard disk" you choose in the configurator.
so make sure it's the SSD.
You can then use your second hard disk to store music,movies,pics etc,
just create a folder for each.

It works pretty well, A have a SSD for my os, be aware when you install games/programs you choose the directory for the install to your HDD, so it doesn't install on your ssd.
