[EdLUG] SSD

[Andrew Ramage]

I have decided that lining them to a directory under my home directory 
is the best option.  Here are the commands.

andrew at andrew-Lenovo-G50-30:~/Disks$ mkdir One
andrew at andrew-Lenovo-G50-30:~/Disks$ cd One
andrew at andrew-Lenovo-G50-30:~/Disks/One$ ln /media/andrew/6435-3539/
ln: /media/andrew/6435-3539/: hard link not allowed for directory
andrew at andrew-Lenovo-G50-30:~/Disks/One$ ln -s /media/andrew/6435-3539/
andrew at andrew-Lenovo-G50-30:~/Disks/One$ cd ..
andrew at andrew-Lenovo-G50-30:~/Disks$ mkdir Two
andrew at andrew-Lenovo-G50-30:~/Disks$ cd Two
andrew at andrew-Lenovo-G50-30:~/Disks/Two$ ln -s /media/andrew/76E8-CACF/

Will I be able to save files to directories One/6435-3539/ and 
Two/76E8-CACF/ to put files on the SDs ?
