Looking to reinstall qubes from scratch and would like to optimise the use of the ssd so I execute as much as possible on the ssd and use the sata for storage.
I have a 500gig ssd and 1 tb sata.
Thoughts appreciated
At the moment I installed qubes on the sata drive to test out and experiment on.
Regards
Ronald

Thanks Andrew,
I thought about using links to the other disk for the infrequently accessed info. Nice to see this is the "official" method.
My ssd is big enough that I should be able to get everything on it, and then I can mv some VM's if I want to rearrange the space.
Regards
Ronald
