I store my Music and Movies on a external hard drive because there is not enough space on my internal hard drive. I typically use finder to locate my drive, then click through all the necessary folders to navigate to the file I need. Lion seems to have some quick navigation folders under "favorites" that are supposed to collect your "documents", "movies", "music", and ect... however it will not collect the music and movies that I have stored on my external hard drive. I was wondering if I can change where finder looks for theses files. For instance I know when finder is looking for movies it looks under "/Users/theconfused1" while I'd like it to look under "Elements 2TB/Video".

I figured there may be a way to use terminal or something. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
