Hi, all!

I received my Vanquish 3 (level 3) yesterday. It's all set up. I'm in love.

I have a question about the C drive and E drive. I believe it currently is just using the C drive. That has 45.2 GB free of 111 GB. That is going to be filled very soon with all my screenshots, music, pictures and games. The E drive has 931 GB free of 931 GB. My question is: how do I access the E drive, do I want to play games from that drive? How does this work? I need help. I'm a dummy with this stuff. Any website recommendations that explain this stuff. I'm going from Vista to Win 8.1 so I'm even more confused.

I hope my questions actually make sense...

Thanks. :)

When installing programs you want to run from the E: drive, during the install it will ask you for a location to install it, usually defaulting to the program files folder on the C: drive.  Click on the "Browse" button and select E: and it will load it there.  Any media files (music, movies, photos, etc.) you will probably want to load into the E: drive.  Go to File Explorer and you can drag and drop files; right click and go to "New" and select "Folder" if you want to organize things in folders.

Yep, it's as simple as clicking "Browse" and change the C to an E ... most everything can be stored in that E: drive because it's huge!

Have fun! ....

I'm having so much fun! It's so weird that I don't have to check to be sure I have room before installing a game or uninstalling a game to make room. The best thing is playing games at 60 FPS when I was getting 9-19 FPS. How did I even play like that? I don't know.
