man 1 ls
In your case, I'd recommend going through the install as normal,
except designate one of the two drives as your /home. I'm not sure
what you mean by linking *both* of the drives (it doesn't work that
way); just setting one of the other big drives as the /home
mountpoint should do the trick.
