Hi


Yes either at install as /home or because its for your own home directory you could set it up later mounted as /home or as say /home/tony once the OS is installed.


The easiest way if say /home/tony as the mount point is Ok is afterwards by far, but its something to learn via the installer that is harder though.


regards

Steven

Subject: SSDs and HDDs

Hi all,

Recently, I built my own Desktop computer. I've been using an old HDD and am planning to upgrade to an SSD. Owing to the fact that SSDs are expensive, I am also planning to get a 500GB or 1TB HDD for files. I want to put the OS and a few resource intensive programs (Android Studio, Blender, GIMP, etc) on the SSD, but have my home folder and my files on the HDD.

Is there an easy way to do this? Is this something in the installation process that I can set up?

Thanks,
Tony
