Clean up and defrag!

If you do have two drives the easiest method would be to move the MY Documents folder to the drive that IS NOT your system drive.

I never keep "MY ..." anything folders on the system drive.

To see how this works right click MY PICTURES then hit PROPERTIES. Now hit the LOCATION tab. From there you can have your MY anything folder saved to what ever drive you want. You can even store it on another computer as long as it is on the same network and never lose your "MY" anything folders.

Every drive in your computer could die and if you have saved your My what ever to a network drive you lose nothing. You rebuild the system have it point to the network drive and boom all your photos, documents, downloads and anything else is right there again.
