Always put your Saves Game folder with your CC on your fastest drive because the game constantly writes scratch files to your Saves folder, as for the actual game, this can go and fast or slow drive and even an external, it will just takes a little longer to load up. To squeeze every bit great performance, use 3 HDs in your machine, one just for the OS, The other for the Games folder, and the faster drive for the Saved games folder with all CC by creating a Junction in C:\Users\{User}\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4, as sharing your saves games folder on the same drive as your OS as the game demands you to, is also a bad idea, and if you record videos, you should never use the same drive as your Saves games folder, otherwise your with get a drive constantly write back and fourth in two spots reducing performance in both arrears.
To move your Sims 4 Saves folder anywhere you like, you need to create a Junction, a good light-weight free software to organise your Junctions is
Link Shell Extension.
Otherwise you will have to use the command line with many switches, which can get quite tricky.
