Should I Reverse Course on Where My Proxmox is Installed (SSD vs. 1TB drive)?

[Proxmagic]

My Proxmox configured during setup to be installed on my SSD drive initally with it partitioning that drive both local and local-lvm.

Watching videos and docs, I opted to resize it where it was only seeing a portion of the drive and configured Proxmox to see the second internal 1TB drive.

The 1TB drive I setup entirely as local-lvm. Now I see the one container I setup is apparently stored on that 1TB drive. IE Highlighting that container, Resources Root Disk points to the local-lvm. I understand containers and VM's should for best performance go on the SSD drive.

1) Can I move that container to the SSD drive?

2) In getting ready to install another VM / Container, I see I do not have the option set the 1TB drive (local-lvm) to store only the ISO's, backup, template, just the Disk Image and Container. Which confuses me since the advice is to use SSD drives for VMS and Containers. I could save SSD space if I could have the ISO's and backup's here. I understand there is some sort of format different, but is this really the best use of that 1TB drive to host just Disk images and Containers?

3) Do I need to start over again and somehow have Proxmox see the 1TB drive as storage for everything but Disk Images and Containers?

The description of your problem is not at all clear.
You don't explain what the 1TB drive is (HDD or SSD), or how you connected it to Proxmox.

Can you see 2 individual drives under the 'Proxmox node' -> 'Disks' menu.?

What can be stored on the disks, LVM or LVM-Thin is configured at the 'DataCenter' level in the 'Storage' menu. There you can select the storage, (in your case LVM or LVM-Thin), and then choose what content can be stored on each, only then will you see the correct storage options on the node itself.
