Is there any way.....

....to have your 'My Documents' folder mounted on a seperate HD from your OS? Obviously, I know I can store things on other HD's, but I was wondering if there was a way for the entire folder to be located elsewhere.... kinda like on Linux where you can mount another drive as the /boot or /home directory.

I believe if you right click on it, and select properties.... you can change the location of it.

Whether that will work or not will probably depends on the OS. I know there isn't any property option available for "my documents" in W2k (I just looked)

you are mistaken... I am on win2000 and I am able to change the target location of "my documents..."

this Utility might also help you...

it's a small registry tweaking program that allows you to make a new system folder or a new system linked program.

For example with this you can have a new icon in the "My Computer" system folder called "My Stuffs".
