[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1921968, member: 110816"] I would recommend leaving your Documents folder where it is and mounting the external drive and manually use it to store your documents when you save. You don't want to move the default Documents (even if you could) since that will cause issues when the external drive isn't plugged in. I'm pretty sure you can drag a folder from the external drive to the sidebar in Finder to make it easy to access. [/QUOTE]
