This can be achieved by initially defragmenting the hard drive, followed by reducing the partition size using a live CD with GParted or a comparable utility. Though this method seems unusual and should only be considered when no alternatives exist, it might be your best option. Instead of starting from scratch, you could opt to install Windows on your SSD, set it as the boot device, and then later attach the HDD to your PC so you can transfer all files through Windows.

Great choice! Just grab a larger SSD for a smoother experience.

I've experienced great outcomes with Macrium Reflect Free.
