SSDs slow down as you fill them up because the drive will have a lot of partially filled blocks, which are slower to write to than empty blocks. They take nearly MB of space that you could put to better use. A tool like the free CCleaner can help tremendously, scanning your hard drive for unnecessary temporary files and deleting them for you.
Meanwhile, WinDirStat is an ideal tool for figuring out where your storage space is going. You could achieve fewer writes by not saving temporary files to your SSD—for example, you could redirect your browser cache and PhotoShop scratch disk to a mechanical hard drive—but this will lead to slower performance when your system needs to access these files. Modern defragmentation tools and operating systems should refuse to defragment a solid-state drive. However, old defragmentation programs may not know the difference and may happily defragment an SSD.
When writing data, the SSD can write only to empty sectors. You may want to consider upgrading to a or G SSD -- if not now, than in the near term, when you outgrown the G drive. It sounds like you need to install quite a bit -- you may want to consider a G SSD which will allow you to run programs directly from the SSD -- which will be appreciably faster than doing so from the hard drive.

It just doesn't make sense to have 1 Tb of disk space on HDD Hybrid laptops should already be preinstalled with a boot drive partition using SSD, root on HDD, and leave the rest for the user to decide.
You are best to just upgrade your SSD to a larger Capacity. It is possible to create junctions I have a Windows 8.

You can opt for an all-in-RAM system, where most, if not all, pieces of code required by the OS to function properly would be loaded in your RAM, and reside there between reboots, with the occasional refresh when necessary.
