I know how to download the files using

ia download 'Collection Identifier Here'

but I don't know how to save it to a separate drive.

I found that you can use --glob to save to a different folder in a directory, but I don't know how to use it and if it works for drives, let alone where it saves without --glob.

I haven't found a solution yet (yes, I've tried to find the solution myself). If there's already someone who posted a solution, please send the link or tell me the solution.

If it helps, I'm using python on Windows and followed the installation guide in Internet Archive's documentations. I've installed pipx. I don't want to download the files to my main drive (C:/). The collection is ~250GB (they're videos along with their thumbnails).

I've only installed it ~2 hours ago. Yes I'm new
