Fresh OS install - Steam games

[thedoc46]

At the moment i have steam client installed on my c:\program files blah blah blah, but my latest steamlibrary games are on a separate drive.

Going to Win10 this weekend. Clean install. So if i copy just my steamapps folder, and put it back on my 'other' drive, as i want to keep my c: drive free from any games, should i be installing steam on the separate drive, or back onto my c: drive ?

Problem is i had many of my games on my c drive, and i moved them over using steamspreader, which moves the files but keeps 'junctions' on the C drive..

But I stopped doing that over a yr ago... So i'm happy to just re-download those old games.. Besides i have a 125mb d/l, so if i just leave it overnight, i'll have everything d/l again... My newer games, i just created a new library on a separate drive, rather than installing on my c and then moving with steam spreader (thus creating a boat load of NTFS junctions) or links, as some like to call them.
