Does it speed up stuff?
Should I install windows on it?
Should I only use the SSD or can I use both SSD and HDD

>Does it speed up stuff?
Yes. There is a huge speed increase. However, this speed may or may not be useful to you. It depends on how heavily you use your machine. Applications like GIMP or Photoshop will open and work a lot faster.
>Should I install windows on it?
You should never install Windows on anything. I recommend Ubuntu Budgie. It's free and you can make a bootable flash drive using Rufus in Windows or Etcher in OS X.
>Should I only use the SSD or can I use both SSD and HDD
You should keep your operating system and most used applications on an SSD. For storing large files, especially for long-term storage, an HDD is perfectly fine. In general a 2.5 inch HDD will last longer than a 3.5 inch HDD or an SSD.
Also keep in mind that your computer needs to be new enough to take full advantage of the SSD. Anything made after 2010 should be able to fully utilize the power of an average SATA SSD. I recommend a Crucial.
