If I install coin at ubuntu root directroy, then it uses main ssd drive,

this is too pricy at amazon.web server, so how can I change directory to which download block datas?

I want to use more cheap and large size HDD drive for download large block datas.

You can start your daemon with a startup command to use another path for the blockchain (data directory).

On linux:
Code:
./bitcoind -datadir=/your/external/path
