Can't Write To External Drive? #1079

Describe your issue here

So, I've trying to download a pretty beefy VOD, and my local PC doesn't necessarily have enough space, but I have an external HDD that I wanted to write the VOD to, which has more than enough storage. However, when I press the download button and I'm able to choose the location of the download, I choose my HDD and yet when the download starts, it'll say "You may not have enough storage on drive C:/" even though my HDD is, say, Drive "D:/". So I was just curious is this just something I'm dealing with? Or might it be a bug of some sort?

Downloads are written to a cache location before finalized and written to the destination location.

You want to set the cache location to be on your D: drive in the settings.
