can I move my logic pro sounds library to another disk?

My hard drive (iMac (21.5-inch, Late 2013)) is getting crowded, so I would like to give myself more room for working with recording and processing files. Obviously poor judgement on my part in setting up my file system. This is my first iMac (2015) so my knowledge of the most efficient and productive use has been hampered by the lack of understanding the system.

Any help in improving my use of the available space would be greatly appreciated.

Setup:

1.12 TB Mac HD

External 8 TB USB Disk (with 4.97 TB available)

Thanks. - Michael

iMac 21.5″, macOS 10.15

Yes you can. Go to Logic pro - Sound Library - Re-locate Sound Library. It will then ask where you plan to re-locate too.

Thanks for the direction, ravenandrews40!

It got me to the dropdown menu that should have the "Re-locate library" option, but it wasn't there! I believe it's because my operating system is too old.

That being said, I suspect I will have to buy another iMac since my machine is too old for the later versions of the OS. If you have any suggestions, it would be appreciated.

My Logic version is 10.4, which may be the problem. That might account for the lack of the "re-locate" option...
