Ok, that was lazy of me. Google says

Path: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList
Value: ProfilesDirectory

In Terminal Server\RDS-land I moved users to a D: drive with very simple 
registry change and it works flawlessly, all new users drop to the new drive, 
and it was trivial moving the existing ones over.

Depending on your environment it might be time consuming while you wait for all 
the files to move over...

Subject: symlink c:\users?

I have an existing RDS 2008 R2 server that is used by students in a lab.  I 
really need to get c:\users off the C drive.  There are times they need to 
store items on the desktop as they are not allowed on their network storage.  
Anyone moved it using a symlink to another drive?  I read it is unsupported but 
I don't see many reports of problems.
