Thank you very much to you and all who answered.

I still have to work out how to do the things suggested, but given time I should break through and get it right.

@Rodney,

Copy the data from your thunderbird data directory to the other disk or use ImportExportTools from Thunderbird Window to move profiles…

In reply to Pungki Arianto. Hi, I want to copy .thunderbird from /dev/sdb to /dev/sda is this possible in mc? Or do I have to manually do it somehow? When I open mc I get the same drive on both sides of the mc window, if I could change one side to the second SSD, then it would be a simple task. P.S. I am totally new to mc, and I can't figure out how to get both drives up on the main window. Any help would be fantastic. Thank you.

People interested in such file managers may also like (my) fman.io. It's available on Linux but has a GUI. It features cool things like jumping to directories very quickly like Sublime Text's Ctrl+P command, or a Command Palette. It also has a Python-based plugin API.
