It seems to me that if I choose to put all my samples on 2 separate SSD drives (for fastest read times) that aren't my OS drive, Sonar should give me the option of where I want to install all the synth wavs, loops, etc to be located - instead of just plopping them on my OS drive. Does that entail a feature request?
 
Once all those wavs are on my OS, how do I point the synths that need them to see them once I uproot them?

Hi. I have all my samples installed on a separate disc. In CCC, click on the gear icon, and choose verbose install. This will give you options to where to install samples and loops. 
All the best.
