Virtualbox default storage location


Hi,

Just trying to figure out how to change the virtual HD location. I want to use a large storage drive to host the HD and snapshots on. I was able to fumble my way through the snapshot part. How can i tell Virtualbox to use my storage drive rather than my local boot drive to store / run guest from? also, I can migrate the guest HD AFTER install cant I?
