Hi, my C-drive is near capacity due to the size of my SC Data & Backups. I would like to add a new Drive and store these two folders on it while running SC on the existing C-Drive. Is this possible? Are there any other folders/executables that need to reside on the new drive?

You can change the Data Directory but not the Backups. Refer to the information here:
General Settings Window: Data Files Folder (Global Settings >> General Settings >> Paths >> Files and Folder Paths)

In the Backups folder, you can just delete any files you do not need in there. That should not be a big folder. Really Sierra Chart should be on its own dedicated solid-state drive.

OK agreed, I've just bought a couple of SS Drives and will move the complete installations over. Thanks for your input.
