Second iTunes Library?

[Pipian]

I have Two Hard Drives on my G4 Powermac, I'm running out of space on My main one, and have 5o-someodd gigs of music on it, with only 9 gigs free.. Is there anyway I can make a second library on my second Hard Drive and have all new songs go to it?

Thanks

Well Im not sure about making a second library per se, but you can always put all your music onto the second one and just redirect iTunes to the new location of your music.

instead of
*/music/
in your home folder, you can have it redirected to the other hard drive
/MacHD2/My Tunes
or whatever.

Get the idea?

Although iTunes won't let you make two music libraries, there is a way to get the effect you want. Go into iTunes preferences, then to the Advanced tab. Turn off "Keep iTunes Music folder organized" and "Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to Library". Then, when you want to add a song from your other drive, it will stay there and not get copied over to your main HD, which is running low on space.
