Move the blockchain to a different location I am using the Bitcoin-Qt application on Ubuntu, but the blockchain is very large and is wasting space on my SSD drive. Is there a way that I can move it to a hard disk drive?

There doesn't seem to be a setting for this. Is it possible?
First close your client down and then copy the .bitcoin folder that was created in your home directory to the new location where you wish to store the data.  Second create a symbolic link using the new path:


  ln -s /new/path/to/.bitcoin .bitcoin 


Finally restart the bitcoin client and it will use the blockchain stored at /new/path/to/.bitcoin (or wherever you put it)
