Hello Forum,

 

As you read in the title, I wanted to know where all the data in iTunes is stored. If it's stored in the C: drive (which is a 120GB SSD in my case), how can I store it in my HDD? Symbolic links?

 

Thanks! :)

As far as I know the music is stored in a folder called iTunes in the default windows music folder. You might be able to change the directory of were it is stored in iTunes.
