If you COPY folders to different locations, does this take up more disk
space, or does it just give you more than one way to access the folder?
Thanx.
 
Copy would make identical copies of the folder at a new location thus taking
up additional hard drive space.

A Copy is a copy - duplicate files in the two places, which then have
separate 'lives' - if you modify in one place it does not affect the
other. To get a separate reference to the same files, make a shortcut:
Easy way is to *right* drag, take 'create shortcut here'
