What's the best way to use both an SSD and an HDD?

Question

I have a Windows 7 laptop with an 128GB SSD and an 1TB HDD. I want to use both efficiently. I have 2 plans so far.

Plan A) Use 50GB of SSD for OS. Use the rest of SSD as a cache space to boost an HDD using a caching software like eBoostr, PrimoCache, etc. Aiming for automatic cache(hit rate) management.

Plan B) Use 50GB of SSD for OS. Use the rest of SSD for crucial or frequently loaded programs like anti-virus, web browsers, some games, etc. Use HDD as a storage for games, media, docs, etc. Manual management and changing usage frequency might be problems.

What should I choose? Or are there any better ideas?

Answer 1

I prefer Plan B, without partitioning the SSD. I install all my softwares and games to ssd and use hdd for storing movies, music, docs etc.
