If your on Windows 8 8.1 or 10 click the windows/Start menu icon bottom left then them 3 lines top right click that it will show you most used if Steam is there right click on it and you get a small window click the part that says (Open File Location) That will take you to the steam folder.

pfft.. remove skyrim completely (remove thro steam then make sure everything is gone you do not want any leftovers) . reinstall thro steam

(leave the vanilla game in its original steam directory). then download Mod organizer. install into your SSD and then start by cleaning your masters (clean masters go into MO mod folder in SSD). i would suggest following the step guide at least the first part about cleaning masters, as it preserves the masters in the steam directory.

 

doing this will put almost everything into your SSD, except: enboost, skse or ssme, wrye bash, tes5edit +merge edit script, loot, and performance monitor.
