I want to Full reinstall the game on my M.2 Drive and can't seem to get it to work

Title pretty much explains it. My C drive is an SSD but not my m.2 SSD and I want to reinstall the game to hopefully boost my performance until I can afford some more ram for my machine. Also, I would just like the game installed on there for better overall performance.

I'm very unable to find any steps online without running into any issues, hoping to run into someone here that can maybe explain to me how to do this properly? Thank you kindly in advance for any and all help/comments, input is much appreciated.

Note: I am curious as to maybe the reason I can't get it to work is because all that first time setup stuff like the C++ and what not was installed on my C Drive? Idek... not tech savvy enough to understand if that's my problem or not...

    game loads to ram, once loaded it probably does very little actual write in/from your ssd. moving to your m2 will maybe only make it load the game faster. most performance gains will be from your gpu, second your cpu. assuming you have enough ram, adding more will do very little if anything, faster ram though will help a little.

    that might be enough to get you started with some convos with chatgpt to figure out what you could do to solve your specific issue. maybe start with asking about the questions you should ask for your specific problem.

    good luck!

    When reinstalling, the launcher should prompt you with the choice of where you place the game client files. You should be able to choose the drive you want from there.
