Easy peasy! Just open Steam and head to 'Settings' -> 'Downloads' -> 'Steam Library Folders'. Here, you can add a new library folder in a different location on your hard drive. Once you've added the new location, you can right-click on any game in your Steam library, go to 'Properties', then the 'Local Files' tab, and select 'Move Install Folder' to your shiny new directory!
