Installing программное обеспечение in another location?

I bought в 32gb msata ssd for my гигабайт brix (amd) and I was wondering if I were to install Ubuntu on that drive that I could install программное обеспечение / packages in another location like on в secondary hard drive? I would like to keep Ubuntu on the ssd for speed and посвяти тебе в mechanical drive for programs and поля.
