i want to install a second harddisk into my mac, so i can use the extra space for music, video and document files and maybe some aplications. i would like to know if its possible to move the native video folders to that extra drive.

i'm sure there is some way to change the path of these folders, someone will probably point it out soon! if i couldn't find a way i would try the following (using ~/Pictures as example).

1. Copy ~/Pictures to /Volumes/newdisk/Pictures
2. Delete ~/Pictures
3. Create a symbolic link in home folder pointing to /Volumes/newdisk/Pictures
ln -s /Volumes/newdisk/Pictures /Users/yourname

you already know but do drop your stuff into a burn folder and backup before messing with it!
