Not a good idea. It's normally a good idea to keep the files on your main drive to stop errors. The only way around that being to uninstall the old application and reinstalling it pointing the install location to the HDD.

The easiest and safest way to accomplish your goal is to back everything up onto a external drive or something, and then wipe the drive and install it into the desired drive upon reinstall.

Instead of that you could also perform a Clone of the drive and move everything over.

Use Virtual Clone Drive or Acronis.
