I have a 120GB ssd with my OS on it and a 1TB HDD where I want to download all my crap on. I'm downloading stuff online but its defaulting to my SSD, how do I change it so windows automatically downloads to the HDD?

set the download folder to the other drive using mklink. Download a program like "dirlinker" or even steammover to do it with an easy to use user interface. You can also do a couple registry tweaks but I don't recommend it at all.

Tools -> Options in Firefox. Download location is in the panel that opens up.

Don't be afraid to open the Settings menu on your own. It's really not hard to find. Took me 10 seconds and I don't even use Chrome.
