Anyway to relocate files to an external drive

or run the block indexing process on a remote server [ Linux / Softalicious ] ?
You can't do that. You can, however, run the bitcoind process on a VPS and execute API calls on that instance.

Running latest Bitcoin QT on a MBA that has been crashing a lot of late I need to reindex blocks it seems every week. Takes days and max's out my processor so its very troublesome. Anyway to relocate files to an external drive or run the block indexing process on a remote server [ Linux / Softalicious ] ? Apologizes if I am missing some key issues in this query. Don't want to run anything with Java or host with an online wallet [ remember Bitcoinica ? ]. Suggestions ?

Thanks very much
