    what i did on my win7 was cut those folders from the users\name folder in the C: drive, pasted them in the D: drive & sent shortcuts to the desktop.

    It doesn't matter which drive you use but downloads take up a lot of space. Looks like the D: drive is your best option. I don't know which browser you're using but most have a setting which allows you to specify the default drive for downloads.
