TL;DR: Create a directory to hold Hugging Face data and set the environment variable HF_HOME to that directory's path.

For example:

mkdir /Volumes/externaldrive/huggingface
export HF_HOME='/Volumes/externaldrive/huggingface' 

You'll also want to set it in your .profile or .bashrc or wherever you set these things.
