When using pip from within Jupyter lab, where are the packages installed? I have an internal ssd and an external hdd, and I strongly prefer having the packages installed on the external drive. Is there a way to do this?
first of all pip packages are downloaded into the python lib folder of your environment.
extensions then get installed into the jupyter data folder.
run jupyter --paths to see where jupyter stores what.
you can also change these paths.
this explains the available options.
