How to change drive path for CCMSETUP folder to download the file

Currently we are in process of migrating clients from SCCM 2007 to SCCM 2012 but having issue as we are dealing with less disk space on Windows drive.

Is there any option we can download CCMSETUP folder file in another drive & not in default \Windows drive.

Thank you Torsten, I have corrected the link and I concur with Jason.

My point is that you can use SMSCACHEFLAGS properties to compress the folder.

I agree with you Jason, but is there any option we can change default path of CCMSETUP folder to some other drive so that client installable files get downloaded to another drive.
