I do that with thunderbird files for my mail, virtualbox files, etc.

jdb
It usually does, but there was an issue with hard links, sym links, or a bad drive. Something went funky one time and like a superstitous villager, I never tried that again.
Ok so the new plan would be
Internal HD (9.10 64 Installed)
/dev/sda1 20Gb Ext3 /
/dev/sda2 4Gb Swap
/dev/sda3 Remainder Ext3 /home/xxx/data
Directories symlinked into /home/xxx/data
/dev/sdb3 Remainder Ext3 /home/xxx/dup
External HD (10.4 64 Installed)
/dev/sda1 20Gb Ext3 /
/dev/sda2 4Gb Swap
/dev/sda3 Remainder Ext3 /home/xxx/data
Directories symlinked into /home/xxx/data
/dev/sdb3 Remainder Ext3 /home/xxx/dup
