| Connecting Desktop to a different Hard Drive
I'm not sure if this is the correct section to post this but I really need help,
One of my hard drive ( local Disk (C)  has only 10 GB on it and what ever I download onto my Desktop takes up space in the Hard drive I have a different Hard drive with 150 GB on it and I want to connect the desktop onto that so then it doesn't eat up all my 10 GB because I can't download much! So is there a way to do that? Please help. |
