So, I've recently upgraded my Mac mini with a 250GB ssd and I'm wanting to move my Documents and Movies folders to my secondary internal HDD. I've seen several posts on how to move my entire home folder but I'm not wanting to move my music and downloads folder because I access them a lot more frequently and I don't want to lose the speed increase from the ssd. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Phil

That's cool, I was reading you didn't have to create symlinks anymore you can just change the home folder location under users in settings but there is no way to do only single folders. but I think for what I need the symlinks are probably my only option. Thanks for the help!

Why will I need to create another account? I know it's good to do that if I'm relocating my home folder but since I'm just using symlinks what is the purpose of the second account?
