Can I Install Steam Games on Two Different Drives? [Both Internal AND External]?

[Joseph Stardust]

So the PC I plan on getting has 1tb SSD, and that's it. I usually require more than 1tb of storage, so I bought a WD 4TB desktop external HDD [WDBWLG0040HBK-NESN]. This is a prebuild PC so I cannot add another internal HDD.

I would like to know if it is possible to install Steam games on two different drives at the same time. I have certain games that I want to prioritized for the internal SSD [Cyberpunk 2077, Kingdom Come: Deliverance, For Honor, GTA V, The Witcher Trilogy, etc]. And the HDD would be for not-so-demanding games that can ease off the 1TB limit of the SDD [Payday 2, TF2, CS:GO, Titanfall 2, Jump Force, Warhammer 40K games, etc].

I also would like to know if it is safe to install and play games that do not need an external launcher [Wizard101 non-steam client, 3D space cadet pinball, those types of download, unzip, and play games].
