I have a MBP with a self-installed 500 GB hybrid. It runs fine but I'm slowly running out of space. I don't have any music or movies installed, but a lot of photos.
My optical drive doesn't work and I'm considering installing a second internal HDD.
Found plenty of sites that tell me how to do it, but I haven't come across anything discussing the separation of data.
If I go with an SSD I know it's best to put my applications on that drive. How would I go about doing that?
Does the second drive show in Finder like it when I used to split the HDD on my old PCs?

- Install a new SSD and then just move stuff over as I need it onto the second drive?
- Install a new SSD and use my TM backup to populate that drive? I can' afford a 500 GB SSD though.
- Or some entirely different way I don't know about
