Temp files

[ripman]

While ripping (and converting to flac) my first cd with dBpoweramp I noticed that temporary files are placed on C drive ("C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Local\Temp\DSP826A.tmp" for example).

I had planned to rip my rather large cd collection to NAS, but I had not planned to wear out my SSD C drive while doing that. There should be a way to direct all temporary files to a given location but can't find such setting anywhere.

Is there a way to do that in some other way?

Re: Temp files

Modern SSDs have wear leveling, you could rip CDs all day, every day for 25 years and it would not kill the SSD.

Ripping 100 CDs = 1000 track writes, having a temp drive on a SSD you probably create 1000 temporary files per day just by using Windows.
