Have games in separate drive?

[Solidus88]

I recently installed a M.2 to install Windows, but I have another hard drive in the same system with all of my Launchbox games. My question is can I have my games folder moved to a separate drive and have Launchbox/BigBox in the M.2 drive with Windows?

Yes,  but you will have to tell Launchbox where your games have moved to on a per platform basis. Just highlight all the games in a platform with CTRL A and go to tools/change rom path and browse to the new location.

Alright so it sounds doable. Thanks!

Yeah its totally doable, I used to have mine like that, I had Launchbox with all the images on my SSD, but then had all the games  and videos on a HDD, works just fine.

Another question is: Can I load my emulators on the separate hard drive as well?

Yup.
