have /home/user/Downloads (and other user folders) on a different partition

I recently got an SSD. I use it to store my / as well as my /home directories (on different partitions).

For each user, I would like to have most of their folders on my big RAID-1 with 2 hard drives (I'm talking about /home/<user>/Downloads, /home/<user>/Music, /home/<user>/Documents, etc. to make this more clear).

First I thought about symlinks, but I think this wouldn't work, as the whole home-directories should be encrypted with ecryptfs.

So, how can this be achieved?
