A symlink is just a filesystem shortcut to another location.  Note that
it is NOT the same thing as a GUI-style shortcut you'd create on your
desktop.  I only know for sure about how to do this in Linux, but I'm
pretty sure the syntax is the same on a Mac.

In Linux, you type "ln -s <target> <link name>".  For example, if your
SC music folder is at /home/username/music and you want to add a drive
at /dev/sdb, you type "ln -s /dev/sdb /home/username/music/sdb"

I believe Vista recently added symlink-ish capabilities to Windows, but
I'm not sure how to use them.
