BTC blockchain, why are you so big!

So i am resyncing my bitcoin qt client to see if I have any BTC in an alt wallet.bat i forgot about and while i still have 20 weeks left to sync, the bitcoin folder where the blockchain is stored is already at 110gb.

This is pretty massive, considering the drive its on is a 500gb SSD, I will have to move it or delete it.

Does anyone know an easy way to transfer the blockchain to a secondary HDD?

Actually, thinking about it, what benefits are there to keeping the blockchain?
