I have a SSD installed and it is rapidly filling up. Can I dl and install DAZ Studio 4.5 to the secondary HHD (D). The OS is on the SSD (C).
I would like to install all my apps to (D).

    Another question mike, should I move the 'user profile and program data' to the hhd as well? Or is it sufficient to just install the programs like DAZ, Corel Painter X, Photoshop etc, to the hhd.

    If you mean the subfolders of
    C:\Documents and settings\...
    than I would say no, you can't move these folders.
    That are special folders and will be find by an application via special Windows API calls.
    The only folders from this area that you can move without risk are those that you can define in the Preferences settings of DS.

    I mean the user-profile and program data. These can be moved from the ssd (C) to the hhd (D). Doing this leaves the OS on the ssd, it also downloads the Applications to the ssd, but the bulky program files to the hhd.
    I just wonder if it is enough to just download the Apps to the hhd, and leave the user-profile and program data on the ssd.
