 …? I have the chain data and indexes symlinked. When updating core, I just reenable the symlinks and pick up where I’ve left off. That assumes a whole new installation. Often it’s just a binary update.

 I want this. By 'symlink' you are referring to symbolic link?

 Yep. Make a shady spot for your chain data and indexes, then link them into the appropriate places for core. Unlink if concerned about an upgrade / change / whatever. Link back when done. 

Good for electrum, too.
