iTunes change backup location
My computer has a 480G m2 NVME drive as my “C” drive. I have an 8TB “D” drive which is only 25% full.
When I built the computer I set it up so the only thing on the “C” drive would be the OS and program files.
Under AppData – Roaming – the Apple Computer file is taking 285G. of that 244G is MobileSync – Backup.
I do backup three iPhones and two iPads on my account, so the size doesn’t seem out of line.
I have been searching but am unable to figure out how to save the Backup file on my D drive or my NAS drive, and also ensure that all subsequent backups go to the “new” location as well.Can anyone assist please?
Thanks!

The method described in this article using a symbolic link to the larger drive worked for me:
