How to install Magento and XAMPP on SSD with separate HDD for all data
This is my first time posting a question as I am very new to Magento.
I have been designing websites for a while, but mostly via Dreamweaver and a couple of WordPress themes a while ago. It is extremely important that I get up and running with Magento Community Edition as I need to focus on eCommerce in the future.
My problem is that I have not found a “complete” tutorial that addresses my situation and installing Magento has not worked properly.
Here is my problem:
I am working on a Windows 10 PC with an SSD for my operating system and all programs, and a second hard drive for all data. I’m using Xampp to run Magento on my local machine which is also on the SSD C: drive.
How do I Install Magento and Xampp on my SSD and have my Database for Magento on my larger HDD data drive?
Please note previously viewed tutorials do NOT address installing Magento and Xammp on a separate SSD with all data on a separate HDD or at least I could not find one.
You help is greatly needed and appreciated.
