You don't want to transfer the entire D and S folder off the system drive
because it contains system and user files that properly belong on the
system drive. However, there are many shell folders that can be
transferred to another drive. Most people who contemplate such an action
are interested in storing My Documents on a different drive. You can find
instructions for that and much more here:

Could someone please explain how to transfer all 'Documents & Settings'
folders from the System ("C") drive, to a separate drive. I read in an
old
post (about August last year) that it can be done; and that it involves
modifying the ProfileList Directory value in the registry
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList.,
but there was no explanation of what modification. I would like all those
folders in my "D" drive.

TIA
