Hey everyone,
So I couldn't decide whether to post this in hardware or software, but I figured it is primarily a software issue.
So I have a macbook, running on a 128GB SSD as the primary drive. Now, I purchased an optibay adapter, and a 1TB hard-drive, which was recognized with no issue whatsoever, and allow me to say that I would take the second hard-drive over a DVD drive ANY DAY! (apple are you listening?)
Now here is my question, I am finding that what is eating up SSD space is desktop files. I know that I could just store everything on the 2nd hard-drive and access from there, but 20 years of going to the desktop for the files I am working on makes that a little difficult.
Is there any way within OSX to define the file path that the desktop reads from? I know I could add a folder called "desktop" to the sidebar of finder, but I am unsure how to proceed with changing the physical desktop to the new folder.
Any help much appreciated!
