I have a NTFS drive for Storage, which is shared between Win 11.
I want to change the location of (or replace) ~/Downloads
, ~/Music
, etc…,.
Note that the link to made is between NTFS and EXT4.
I found two ways while searching.
1.Creating **Symlinks** in `~` with target pointed to folders in NTFS drive.
2. **Mounting** the NTFS folders **directly** to`~/Downloads`, `~/Music`, etc..,.
Which one should I do? Which one is more beneficial?
Also how to mount folders to other folders (option 2) ? (I would really appreciate a GUI way)
I know this is not that important of a thing to post on Main Linux Community, but I already asked 2 linux4noobs community, and they are empty.
This is a continuation to my previous discussion, where most of the people said,
-
It doesn’t matter where I mount.
-
Mount certain folders directly into home other. (like mounting
/mnt/data/music
to~/music
)
a lot of good answers here:
