I got a new computer recently, and in my rush to install games, I have accidentally installed everything on the ssd instead of the hdd. How can I fix this? Can I literally just copy and paste?

Can I literally just copy and paste?

Make a new steam directory on your HDD, then copy your games over. It will say they are uninstalled but if you tell steam to redownload them (to your HDD) it will detect all the files and only download one or two files for each game.
Add me if you need help.
For minimum problems use NTFS symbolic link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTFS_symbolic_link
I would just reinstall them to hdd though.
You also can indeed just copy/paste whole Steam folder. It will work yes as long as you copy whole steam dir and not part of it.
