steam question

I've installed steam on my SSD. But due to the size of it, I want my games like CSS to be on another drive, is that possible?

I have used Game Save Manager in the past. Seems to work fine!

I use this...

SteamTool Library Manager 1.1

it allows me to have most of my games on my mechanical drive but then transfer AND link the games that I think will benefit more from being on my SSD to that drive and Steam continues to work as normal.

I had Steam, and my games library, already on my mechanical drive and thus moved the odd one or two to the SSD. For you it might be the other way around.

There's also SteamMover, and GameSaveManager (which is also awesome for saving games).

This.

It's been covered in many threads and this always the answer.

There no point putting Steam on an SSD and moving the games you don't want off, you want to put Steam on the HDD and move the games you do want loading quickly on the SSD using GSM or SteamMover.
