Just put in a second hdd today and got it all correctly installed and whatnot, but can anyone tell me how to default everything I download to download off onto it rather than the original? First time actually having a second hard drive to play around with and stuff is still defaulting to my original one.

it all depend on what program you want to point to the new HDD for example in firefox go to tools/options/on the main tab see the downloads section/save files to (click the browse button on the right) this will show you the root of your HDD point it to computer then to the new hdd, each program is a little different but most of them will give you the choice of the root of HDD.

You don't even have to do that. If you want everything to download to the 2nd HDD, then when you download something, click save and when you get to the browsing screen, select the new HDD. You can even install all the new files to the new HDD just by selecting that HDD as the install location.
