It's best to install steam / games all on the SSD, I have a similar setup. My boot drive is SSD and only has Steam / Games. Everything else is on a spindle disk. That way I know when i play games the spindle drive is not getting accessed.
Its hard when you have a steam folder over 140GB and an SSD with 148GB space
