Anyone know to use external Drive for saving and loading SaveFiles?

[Drivinghard]

I am a Fallout 4 Hobbiest..
but perhaps people who play DIFFERENT titles have found a way to do this...

is there a way to Make our Save files ONTO and Load them back FROM an exclusively 100% EXTERNAL drive??

- we would quadruple ssd life

- original AI Instances 'beings' would be perpetual instead of constantly CLONED

- if the ssd ever failed .. you could pop in a clone drive .. and load back up your save file from that secure bullet proof Mechanical Drive source (your AI instances could live perpetually through your playthrough across dozens of failing ssds)

I am not talking about COPYING a save file in any way or ever moving it or touching it from the sectors of the mechanical disk where it exists.. every COPY of save file will give you only a CLONE of the AI's you saved
:(

 

whats the point of an AI 'instance' that has to 'experience' everything brand new?

 

thanks a lot,

Wayner

I think there is an ini setting for the save path.
