Silly to run an NVMe and a SATA SSD in the same build?

Got a 1tb nvme for windows and games, and an old 500gb sata ssd lying around. Any downside to using both, and which games should go on the slower one?

not silly at all, loads of builds do it. NVMe for windows and whatever games you play most, SATA for the rest of the library. you won't notice the difference in most games anyway, it's mostly load times. just check your motherboard manual, on some boards using a certain M.2 slot turns off one or two of the SATA ports.
