Only way I know of is to move the entire steam and steamapps dir to the new drive, and even then it might still remember the old drive

the command line updater app from steam kinda allows stuff like this, but I am pretty sure the application (folders) structure needs to be in a preset format, and all in one main location, but I could be wrong.

Try the Steam forums

Couldn't you move a few of the larger files from your C drive to your other drive?

It would appear I've been bitten by the coding bug yet again...
