Boot Gparted and create new partition tables, MBR or GPT, and install 
the OS on the SSD. The idea that a cache is better than just running 
from the SSD is false. Caches use algorithms to decide the most 
frequently used files, then place those files in the cache. All of that 
takes time. Small amounts of time, but still...

With the OS on the SSD, all system files and program files are quickly 
available, and loading pictures directly is better than waiting for the 
cache to do its thing.
