Re: Moving staking wallet to external hard drive

I purchased one of those mini pc's to stake a coin, but found out pretty fast that the blockchain takes up a lot of memory, so much that a smaller gigabyte HD will fill up in a month or so. 

So I purchased an external HD and moved over the folder.  It did free up memory on the mini pc and I thought that the blockchain would now be on the external.  But after a week or so, the mini pc is filling up quite fast with the blockchain data.

The coin that I have is syndicate.  Doe anyone know if I can find the location of the blockchain on the C drive and just move it over?  Or do I need to delete everything and start over from the external HD?

Thanks!

By any means I'm not a professional with things like this but you should find your blockchain info from %appdata% and then from the corresponding folder.
Don't know anything about resyncing it though.

Thanks for the info, I guess that I will be trying different things.  I'm not too sure how common this is.  I did a search a week ago and there are questions about moving wallets to external HD's.  I'll need to re-read them...
