Originally my computer had 2 drives. Drive one for the install, and the other for downloads. Now I have 3 and want to move the DB portion of Newsbin to the new drive. (NVME) The UI allows for the moving of the downloads folder but I cant find where to move the DB portion. Can it be done post install, or do I have to reinstall and re configure?
Thanks!

The way I do it is:
1 - Use the options. "Open Data Folder" in Newsbin. Then exit Newsbin.
2 - Move the data folder to the new drive.
3 - Edit the NBI file which is typically called "Newsbin.nbi" and is typically in the data folder. Change the path that pointed to the old data folder to the new one.
4 - Exit the editor, right click the NBI and Open it with Newsbin.
5 - Close Newsbin.
At that point the NBI should be tracked by Newsbin and it should use the new data folder.
