Direct your program installations to a program folder on the 1TB drive.
 
yes but isnt the point to install windows in SSD? and if its possible to make win7 in the ssd and program files in HDD, can explain how if thats not to much ?

I don't understand what you're saying.

Windows automatically creates a program files folder on the drive it's installed on. Before you ask, no you cannot move it.

When you install a new game or program it will automatically select that directory to install in. Instead you need to choose to install the game/program on the 1TB drive instead of the SSD.
 
Use the SSD for Windows 7 and your commonly used programs, and 1-2 games if they'll fit. Everything else should be installed on your 1TB HDD.

As you asked, the main point of putting your OS on the SSD (along with your programs as long as they'll fit), is that your overall experience with Windows 7 and your programs will be much faster. It's not really accurate to say this, but basically, your "desktop" experience will be a lot quicker, along with boot times. This isn't the only advantage, but it tends to be the main one people are interested in.
 
ok, thanks for very good answere but second question will the SSD slow down if its near the limit of space like only 5-10gb left ? or it will work same `?

If you aren't gonna have very much space left then get a bigger SSD.

I don't think it affect the read speed, I think it will affect the write speed because if you have already write data in the free space, the OS have to clear the space and write data to it. so that will take time.
If I am wrong please correct me.
Cheers.
